I'm from Nigeria and we have many citizens who travel outside the country some actually eat their Russian salad exactly this way . While some may like to include fried chicken, fried rice or even fries potatoes.

I have been eating this salad though I don't know it's called Russian salad making it by myself made me loved it more. It was giving. The creamy taste of the mayonnaise,eggs and my veggies made it yummy. Frankly speaking, it met my expectations and I gave myself 100/100

  • I discovered during this preparation that carrot and potatoes shouldn't be over cooked. Therefore I recommend that the person preparing it should be observant enough to know when its due .
  • Cucumber can also be added to the garnishing.

  • I ate mine after refrigerating it and the taste was unique, I recommend refrigerating it to be chilled before eating.

  • Yogurt is a good idea in making this salad, therefore it can be added.
