Romanian Potato Salad is a classic Romanian dish, a huge hit over the past many years. It is made of cooked potatoes with onions and bell peppers dressed with a mix of olive oil, vinegar, paprika and parsley. A few ingredients are optional though, because it all depends on your own taste.
This salad is very similar to the Bulgarian Potato Salad, and the Serbian Potato Salad. There is no need to use mayonnaise for either of these, but one can always make a dressing with salt, oil and vinegar to enhance the taste.
Majority use this salad as a side dish, as it looks great with fried fish or schnitzel. However, one can also consider it as a complete meal itself. It is very easy to prepare. Within 10 minutes, even a kid can make this delicious yet healthy food.
Over the years, many dieticians have shown concerns over the excessive use of potatoes, as they carry plenty of protein. They believe that a potato adds fat to your body.
However, the situation has completely changed now. A lot of people use potatoes for dieting these days. As far as the Romanian Potato Salad is concerned, it is indeed healthy.
