                                                            Instructions

• boil the carrot, potato, peas and french beans. you could also microwave them till they are completely cooked.
• when the veggies are cooked, peel the potato and then chop the potato with the rest of the veggies. alternatively, you can chop the veggies first and boil them later.
• i usually avoid doing the latter as when we chop the veggies and then boil them, some water- soluble vitamins and minerals are lost in the process. it is better to first boil them whole and then chop them.
• chop the celery. mix the chopped veggies, celery with the mayonnaise, salt and black pepper.
• garnish the salad with lettuce leaves, tomato, cucumber, or capsicum slices.
• serve the russian salad with your regular meals or you can also have it plain any time of the day when you are feeling hungry.
