One of the classic salad recipes, without which almost no meal can be complete, is called "herring under a fur coat." The ingredients for its preparation are quite simple, and in its satiety, a salad may well replace one of the main dishes.
It is necessary
-
- Herring fillet 200 grams,
- 3 eggs,
- 3 potatoes
- 1 carrot,
- 2 beets
- bulb,
- pack of mayonnaise
Instructions
Step 1
The answer to the question of how to cook a herring under a fur coat is quite simple. First you need to rinse all the vegetables and boil them. Beets are cooked the longest; it takes 2 to 3 hours to cook. The water boiling away during cooking must be added so that the roots are completely covered with it. Speeds up the process of cooking beets in the microwave. It takes 1 hour to cook carrots, and 20 minutes for potatoes. In this case, it is advisable to boil carrots, potatoes and beets in their skins. In addition to the fact that in this way they retain more vitamins, vegetables do not lose their shape during cooking.
Step 2
When the vegetables are ready, they are peeled and minced. Potatoes are grated or cut into thin slices. This is the first layer from which the “herring under a fur coat” salad begins. Each of the product layers is coated with mayonnaise. Onion is laid on the potatoes in half rings, grated eggs, herring fillets, peeled from bones, beets.
Step 3
The number of layers depends on the shape in which the salad is created. If a traditional herring mold is used, one layer is sufficient. In the case when the salad is presented in the form of a cake, then it is made more multi-tiered. The products alternate one after the other, reaching the desired height, but the grated beets are still stacked last. The salad is crowned with a layer of mayonnaise, after which it remains only to decorate it with herbs, onions or carrots. When serving, the salad is not mixed, but applied with a spatula in the same layers.
