About Ensaladilla rusa (Spanish potato salad)
A chilled potato, vegetable and mayonnaise tapa, often made with tuna and served with breadsticks. Every bar has its own version.
What to expect
Ensaladilla is usually based on cooked potatoes and mayonnaise. Carrots, peas, tuna, egg and olives appear in different combinations. A good balance between potato and dressing matters more than an elaborate garnish.
Ordering tips
A small portion pairs well with hot tapas such as croquettes or fried squid. Ask about the house recipe: some versions include seafood while others leave out tuna. Breadsticks or bread may be included or ordered separately.
