Homemade Meal With Boiled Potatoes, Pickled Herring, And Fresh Vegetable Salad Recipe

Boiled Potatoes

1. Begin by thoroughly washing the potatoes. Place them in a pot and cover with cold water. Add a pinch of salt. 2. Bring the water to a boil, then reduce to a simmer. Cook until the potatoes are tender, which can take approximately 15-20 minutes depending on their size. 3. Once cooked, drain the water and let the potatoes cool slightly before peeling (optional). Keep them whole or cut into halves or quarters, as preferred.

Pickled Herring

1. For this meal, store-bought pickled herring is preferred for convenience. Ensure to select a quality brand that suits your taste preferences. 2. Gently remove the herring from its packaging and cut into bite-sized pieces if necessary. Arrange aesthetically on the plate.

Fresh Vegetable Salad

1. Begin with washing all the vegetables - lettuce, cucumber, and radishes - under cold water. Pat dry with a kitchen towel. 2. Tear the lettuce into bite-sized pieces and slice the cucumber and radishes thinly. 3. For the dressing, mix together olive oil, vinegar, herbs, and a pinch of salt. Adjust ratios according to taste preference. 4. Toss the vegetables in the dressing just before serving to keep them crisp. Combine everything gently and serve immediately.
