French salad

Jump to Recipe

When we are celebrating Christmas, New years, birthdays…this salad is always on the table. It goes well with roast meat-lamb, chicken or pork. It is also a great starter to have with prosciutto, cheese and other salads. But my favorite is to have it on a piece of Serbian bread, topped with prosciutto from Njegusi and more cornishons.

  • In a separate pot cook eggs until hard boiled.
  • Chop pickles into small pieces, approximately the same size as the cooked vegetables.
  • Do the same with eggs.
  • Transfer cooked vegetables in o a bowl, add eggs, pickles, mayo, creme fresh and mix just until combined. Season to taste.
