A delicious salad for any occasion. If you are lucky enough to live where you can get fresh lettuce in December this would be fantastic on a Christmas table. Don't be squeamish about onions and raisins, they go really well together. I have seen similar receipts in Polish and Finnish cookbooks.

RUSSIAN BEET SALAD

Entered for safe-keeping for ZWT. From RusslandJournal.de. A food processor will save time. I have added 3 ways to precook the beets, depending on your preference. I recommend wearing plastic gloves when handling the beets, as they will stain otherwise.

SIMPLE BEET SALAD (ENSALADA RUSSA)



Simple Beet Salad (Ensalada Russa) image

This is a fairly typical Costa Rican recipe for beet salad using the holy trinity of Costa Rican cooking: Onions, cilantro, and sweet red pepper. Please don't use anything other than fresh beets, it just wont compare.

Categories     Vegetable

Time 25m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

3 medium fresh beets
1/2 sweet onion, finely diced
1/3 large sweet pepper, finely diced
1 bunch fresh cilantro (about a quarter cup when chopped)
3 -4 tablespoons mayonnaise
salt

Steps:

  • Boil the beets with their skins on so they do not lose their color.
  • When they are soft enough to easily pierce with a fork, let them cool in a tub of cold water until they are cold enough to peel. The skin will come off easily if you rub it gently with your fingers.
  • Dice the beets into small squares.
  • Add diced onion, cilantro, and sweet pepper.
  • Add mayonnaise and gently mix thoroughly.
  • Don't forget to add lots of salt if you'd like (I LOVE SALT).
