    Peel the potatoes and cut them into small cubes. Put them on to boil; once the water boils, salt it and cook until tender. Drain and let cool.

  3. Step 3:

    Step 3

    Chop the onion as finely as you can.

  4. Step 4:

    Step 4

    Hard-boil the eggs and dice them just like the potatoes. Do the same with the sausage, radishes, and cucumbers — dice them all and toss them in. Chop the celery finely too (like the onion); it gives this dish its special zing. Mix everything together, potatoes included.

  5. Step 5:

    Step 5

    Salt to taste, stir well, add a spoonful of sour cream, and mix again.

  6. Step 6:

    Step 6

    Pour in the kefir and stir. Add a liter of sparkling water (I like mine on the thicker side). Mix everything well and check the salt. You can add a splash of vinegar, but that's up to you. Then chill the okroshka before serving!
