Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 medium Beetroot (cooked, peeled, and diced)
- 2 medium Carrots (cooked, peeled, and diced)
- 2 medium Potatoes (cooked, peeled, and diced)
- 2 pieces Pickled cucumber (diced)
- 1 small Red onion (finely chopped)
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Sugar
- 1 cup Heavy cream
- 1 tablespoon White vinegar
- 2 sprigs Fresh dill (for garnish, optional)
Instructions
Cook the beetroot, carrots, and potatoes in separate pots of boiling water until tender. This will take about 20-30 minutes depending on their size. Let the vegetables cool, then peel and dice them into small, evenly sized cubes.
Dice the pickled cucumbers and finely chop the red onion.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the diced beetroot, carrot, potato, pickled cucumber, and red onion. Gently toss together to mix the ingredients evenly.
Season the mixture with salt and sugar, adjusting to taste.
In a separate small bowl, whisk together the heavy cream and white vinegar to make the dressing. The vinegar will cause the cream to thicken slightly.
Drizzle the dressing over the salad and gently fold to combine. Be careful not to mash the vegetables as you mix.
Transfer the Rosolli salad to a serving dish and garnish with fresh dill sprigs if desired.
Serve chilled as a refreshing side dish or as part of a festive meal.
