How to prepare: Russian salad with tuna sauce


To prepare Russian salad with tuna sauce, start by cooking the potatoes and carrots. You can cook them whole and cut them once cooked or you can cook them already cut. If you cook them whole and cut them later it will be easier to get compact cubes. Also cut the gherkins and put all the vegetables in a large bowl. Now prepare the mayonnaise following the basic recipe but doubling the quantities. Once ready, add the tuna and anchovies to the mixer. Once mixed with the mayonnaise, taste the cream obtained, if it is not sufficiently tasty, according to your taste, add some anchovies.


Add the mayonnaise to the vegetables and mix well until all the diced vegetables are completely blended with the sauce. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving. The longer the mayonnaise remains in the fridge, the more the vegetables are flavored and the result will be tasty.

Serve your Russian salad after placing it on a serving dish or use it to make delicious cooked ham rolls. Success is guaranteed.
