Tips and recommendations

  • To save time, you can cook the potatoes and carrot in a pressure cooker for 10-12 minutes instead of cooking them for 30 minutes on medium heat.
  • If you prefer a creamier salad, you can add more mayonnaise or Greek yogurt and mix well.
  • To give it an additional flavor touch, you can add a pinch of Dijon mustard or vinegar to the salad dressing.

Common mistakes

  • Not cooking the potatoes and carrot enough: It is important to cook the potatoes and carrot until they are soft and tender so that the salad has a pleasant texture. If they are not well cooked, the salad can be hard or crunchy.
  • Not peeling the eggs properly: It is important to peel the eggs properly to avoid the shell sticking to the egg white. If not peeled correctly, the eggs can have an irregular and unattractive texture.
  • Adding too much salt or mayonnaise: If you add too much salt or mayonnaise, the salad can be too salty or cloying. It's better to add little by little and taste before adding more.

We recommend you prepare: Stewed lentils or fried eggs.
