Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 medium beets
- 2 medium potatoes
- 2 medium carrots
- 4 medium pickles (dill or sour)
- 1 small white onion
- 1 cup frozen peas
- 3 tablespoons sunflower oil (or olive oil)
- 1 tablespoon white vinegar
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Rinse the beets, potatoes, and carrots thoroughly under cold water to remove any dirt. Do not peel them yet.
Place the beets in a pot of boiling water and cook them for approximately 40-50 minutes until they are fork-tender. Remove the beets from the pot and let them cool.
In a separate pot, boil the potatoes and carrots together for 20-25 minutes or until they are fork-tender. Once done, drain and let them cool completely.
While the vegetables are cooling, cook the frozen peas in boiling water for 2-3 minutes. Drain and set them aside to cool.
Once the beets, potatoes, and carrots have cooled, peel them by gently rubbing off the skin. Dice the beets, potatoes, carrots, and pickles into small, evenly sized cubes (around 1/4 inch).
Finely chop the white onion.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the diced beets, potatoes, carrots, pickles, onion, and cooked peas.
In a small bowl, whisk together the sunflower oil, white vinegar, salt, and black pepper to make the dressing.
Pour the dressing over the mixed vegetables and gently toss everything together until well combined. Be careful not to mash the vegetables as you mix.
Taste the salad and adjust seasonings as needed. Cover the bowl and refrigerate the salad for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld together.
Serve chilled as a side dish or light main course. Enjoy!
