RUSSIA - Olivier salad: Meat and vegetable salad in mayonnaise

Here's a Russian specialty that is always served at New Year's celebrations and pretty much any other major family gathering. It was invented in the 19th century in Moscow by a Belgian chef and is now popular all over the world. Traditionally made of cold diced vegetables, cubed potatoes, hard-boiled eggs, boiled chicken (or ham/bologna sausage) and of course, mayonnaise, the recipe varies from country to country.
