Ensalad Rusa (Argentine Potato Salad

This is for 4 servings.  To adjust, just figure one potato/person plus one or two for good luck.


5 medium-sized Yukon Gold (or other potatoes used for potato salad)

1 cup  peas

1 cup of diced and boiled carrots (not to soft)

1 cup mayonnaise

1 hard boiled egg chopped (optional)

juice from 1/2 a lemon

1/2 cup chopped parsley

salt and pepper to taste


 Boil the potatatoes till you can pierce them but not extremely mushy . Let them cool till you can handle them, peel the potatoes and chop them into 1-inch (or a little smaller) dice.


In a large bowl add the cold ingredients, mix  to coat all the vegetables. Stir in the lemon juice and salt.

Simple. That is it. Eat with the Argentine Matambre from my prvious blog.
