Baskets with Vegetarian Russian Salad

The baskets with vegetarian Russian salad are delicious finger foods, made gluten-free and without hard-boiled eggs. I made these baskets with gluten-free shortcrust pastry and then filled them with a Russian salad made of peas, potatoes, carrots, and mayonnaise. With a scenic appearance and delicious taste, these baskets will conquer everyone at the table!

  • to taste salt
  • 12 parsley stems (or chives)

Tools

Steps

  • To make the baskets with vegetarian Russian salad, pour the peas into a pot, cover with water, and cook on low heat.

  • After 5 minutes, add the potato and carrot, both diced, and cook. If necessary, add more water.

  • Once the peas and vegetables are cooked, remove from the pot, transfer everything to a bowl, and let cool.

  • Then incorporate the mayonnaise, salt, and mix to combine the ingredients.

  • Cut the shortcrust pastry with an 8 cm diameter round cutter and place them in the cupcake molds, pricking the bases with a fork.

  • With the remaining shortcrust pastry, make small flowers using a small flower cutter. Place the flowers on a baking tray lined with parchment paper.

  • Bake the baskets and flowers in a preheated oven at 356°F (180°C) for 15 minutes, or until golden brown. Once cooked, remove from the oven and let cool.

  • Fill the baskets with Russian salad, create the basket handles with parsley stems (or chive stalks) by inserting both ends into the baskets.

  • Garnish each basket with a flower. Serve and enjoy!
