Ingredients
Main Ingredients (2 servings)
- 4 potatoes (400g)
- 2 eggs
- 1 cucumber
- 1/4 carrot
Seasonings
- 1 tsp salt (for boiling)
- 2-3 tsp vinegar
- 6 tbsp mayonnaise
- A pinch of salt
- A pinch of pepper
- Sunflower oil, to taste
Steps
- Peel 4 potatoes and cut them into smaller pieces to save time.
- Rinse the cut potatoes in water to remove starch.
- Finely dice 1/4 carrot into 5-6mm or 1cm cubes.
- Slice 1 cucumber into rounds, lightly rub with a pinch of salt, and let it sit. [This is a key tip!] Slicing them into rounds instead of cutting them too small will add volume to the finished dish.
- Add water and 2 eggs and 1 tsp salt (for boiling) to a pot and start boiling from cold water.
- Add the potatoes to the pot and boil together. [This is a key tip!] If you leave the eggs untouched, the yolks will shift to one side, so occasionally roll them to keep the yolks in the center.
- Once the potatoes are tender after about 10 minutes of boiling, add the carrots.
- Boil the carrots for 2-3 minutes. When the potatoes and carrots are tender, remove them from the heat.
- While the boiled potatoes and carrots are still warm, add 2-3 tsp vinegar and mix. [This is a key tip!] Adding vinegar while warm will result in a chewy texture.
- Add 6 tbsp mayonnaise and mix.
- Peel the boiled eggs and chop them roughly.
- Lightly squeeze the salt-rubbed cucumber and add it to the ingredients along with the chopped eggs. [This is a key tip!] Adding the cucumber later will help maintain its beautiful color.
- Add a pinch of salt, a pinch of pepper, and sunflower oil, to taste, and mix everything together. It's done! [This is a key tip!] Sunflower oil adds gloss and flavor.
