Olivier salad is a traditional salad dish in Russian cuisine, which is also popular in other countries. Its basically a mix of vegetables and meat with a dressing . If you ask me whats the difference between Olivier salad and Russian salad which i have already posted, the difference between the two is Russian salad is a sweeter version with added sugar and also they are made with a combination of fruits and vegetables along with dry fruits and Olivier salad has a spicy dressing and it has meat added and the taste is entirely different. Do try it with a bowl of hot piping soup and leave a feed back
