The name "Bouquet of Roses" was given to the festive salad with pancakes and beets for a reason - it actually resembles these luxurious flowers in its design. The dish looks unusual, solemn, immediately attracts the attention of all guests. "Olivier" and "Fur coat" next to such a "neighbor" immediately fade into the background. It is not for nothing that many housewives have a treat after the first time it becomes a crown. It is not difficult to prepare the Bouquet of Roses salad at home, but you will have to tinker a little. However, the recipe is worth it. It is better to bake pancakes in advance, so the cooking time will be significantly reduced.
It is necessary
- - 3 boiled potatoes;
- - 2 boiled chicken eggs;
- - 100 g smoked sausage or salami;
- - 150 g of pickled champignons;
- - 3 small boiled beets;
- - 2-3 cloves of garlic;
- - 5 unsweetened pancakes;

Instructions
Step 1
Peel the boiled potatoes in their skins, grate them into a dish on a coarse grater. It is advisable to cool it before that, so the slices do not stick together, do not become a homogeneous mass.
Step 2
Peel boiled eggs, grate separately in a bowl on a medium grater.
Step 3
Open a jar of pickled mushrooms, drain the liquid into the sink. Finely chop the mushrooms with a knife.
Step 4
Peel the sausage or salami, cut into small cubes or thin strips.
Step 5
Grate 2 boiled beets. The third is to grate on a fine grater into a separate bowl or grind with a blender.
Step 6
Add chopped chives, a little salt and mayonnaise to the coarsely grated beets. Stir, set aside until the festive salad is assembled.
Step 7
Separately grease the finished chilled pancakes with gruel from finely grated beets, lightly salting them. Apply a very thin layer, spreading it evenly with a spoon. This procedure will dye the pancakes hot pink or red so that they resemble roses after cutting.
Step 8
Roll up all the pancakes with a tube, cut into pieces 2 cm long. You will get beautiful roses. They must be transferred to a tray, left to decorate the top of the salad.
Step 9
Start assembly. Lay out all the prepared ingredients in layers, so that in the end you get a downhill slide. At the bottom of the plate, lay out the washed and dried lettuce leaves. Lay out a layer of grated potatoes, brush with mayonnaise. Salt slightly.
Step 10
Put the chopped champignons, reapply the mayonnaise mesh.
Step 11
Form the third layer of grated eggs, cover them with mayonnaise.
Step 12
Next, carefully lay out the sausage cubes.
Step 13
Spread the beet-mayonnaise mass with the last layer so that the top of the slide becomes bright pink, covered with a spectacular "dome".
Step 14
Decorate the slide with prepared pancake roses, placing them as tightly as possible to each other.
Step 15
Stick a few sprigs of parsley between the pancake roses, complement the decoration with lettuce leaves rolled into tubes. Serve slightly chilled to the festive table to soak a little on the refrigerator shelf.
