Today we will experiment a little, we will prepare not the classic version, but a more original one – royal olivier.

For Olivier dressing, we will traditionally take mayonnaise, but we choose high-quality and tasty. You can serve the salad to the table in portions or in one beautiful festive salad bowl.
