Salad “Olivier” – a classic salad for any celebration. It is cooked with sausage, various types of meat and even shrimp. If you decide to pamper your family with a delicious and satisfying dish, then cook Olivier with beef. Cooking such a salad with sausage is the easiest option, so we offer you a truly festive recipe. You can use any meat for Olivier – chicken, turkey or beef. Beef has a rich taste, so the salad becomes bright and tasty. For today’s dish, it is better to boil the meat in advance, since the beef is cooked for at least an hour, and it should be cooled in the broth, so it will turn out juicy and tender.

Otherwise, everything is simple, prepare potatoes, eggs, pickled cucumbers and canned peas for the recipe. For dressing you will need mayonnaise – store or homemade, to your taste and choice.
