Italian-style salad with grated raw apple, olives, and celery

Ingredients

• 2 medium-sized potatoes, boiled in water
• 50 g of celeriac, chopped
• 2 small cucumbers, diced
• 50 g of pitted olives, sliced
• 1 small white onion, grated
• ½ cup of dried oregano
• 6 tablespoons of olive oil
• 3 tablespoons of white vinegar
• 1 clove of garlic, grated
• salt and black pepper

Prepare the dressing by mixing the olive oil, vinegar, garlic, salt, and pepper. The garlic will settle at the bottom: stir before serving. You can substitute it with 1 tablespoon of garlic powder.

Let the baked apples cool, peel them, and cut them into small pieces.

Combine the apples, celery, cucumbers, olives, and onion, then pour in the dressing.

Mix well and sprinkle with oregano.

Serve with garlic bread or bruschetta.

To make it a complete dish, add shredded poached chicken or diced ham.

Instead of oregano, you can use finely chopped fresh herbs such as mint, parsley, or tarragon.
