Canned food is not often used in salads, since it is believed that a dish with them will turn out to be heavy and not always healthy. On supermarket shelves we can find cans of canned tuna, which can be used specifically for salads. A salad made with canned tuna can be called classic or homemade.
The good thing about tuna is that it practically does not have the taste of fish, so even those who do not like fish will eat such a salad. For cooking, you will need the following ingredients:
- canned tuna - 1 can;
- cheese - 150 g;
- chicken egg - 4 pcs.;
- cucumbers - 2 pcs.;
- carrots - 1 pc.
Wash, peel the carrots and boil until tender. Also boil hard-boiled chicken eggs. Meanwhile, while they are boiling, grate the cheese on a medium grater. Chill chicken eggs, separate the white and yolk and chop them into separate containers. Wash fresh cucumbers and grate them finely.
Take a can of canned tuna, be sure to drain the oil, transfer the fish to a separate container and chop it.
This salad is best cooked in bowls, as it won't look so pretty in a salad bowl.
First, put the egg whites on the bottom of the bowls, grease them with mayonnaise, then put canned tuna in the second layer, the third layer is a fresh cucumber grated on a coarse grater. Next, the salad must be salted and greased with mayonnaise. Put boiled carrots on a cucumber layer, sprinkle with grated cheese on top. To make your salad very beautiful, you can decorate it with grated yolks on top.
Place your canned tuna salad in the refrigerator for a while to soak, then serve and enjoy a delicious meal.
