"Ensaladilla Russa" - one of Spain's most favourite tapas dishes

Ingredients

hard boiled eggs
potatoes, cooked in their skin
1 large carrot, cooked
50 g peas, frozen, thawed and cooked
100 g tuna, in olive oil, well drained
4 tbsp mayonnaise, home-made if possible
  vinegar
  salt and pepper
portions

Method

Preparation time: ca. 20 min / Cooking / Baking Time: ca. 20 min / Grade of difficulty: easy / Calories per portion: n/a

Peel the cooked potatoes and carrot and cut both into small cubes. Peel and dice the boiled eggs, leaving some slices.

Mix the potatoes, carrot, egg cubes and peas, season to taste and add the tuna, a few drops of vinegar to taste, and the mayonnaise.

Mold the ensaladilla on a serving plate and garnish with the egg slices and parsley.

The Spanish like to serve this with a type of bread-stick, similar to the Italian Grissini, only shorter and thicker.

You can always vary the amount and type of vegetables as you prefer. The above is the classic basic version.
