Salad with boiled beans
Description
Perfect for an everyday table. To prepare a boiled bean salad, you can either buy ready-cooked beans or cook them yourself in advance. The process is simple but time-consuming, so it's best to soak the beans beforehand. I made the salad with red beans, but you can use white beans as well. It's also better to boil the potatoes in advance (either in their skins or peeled). Optionally, you can add some carrots or pickled cucumbers. Garnish as desired and serve.

Step 5
I don't dress the salad with anything, as it's already salty and coated with oil from the fish and onion. Just mix all the ingredients together.
