Instructions
Step 1
Rinse the meat under running water. Pour 1, 5 - 2 liters of cold water into a small saucepan and bring to a boil. Then dip the beef in boiling water, reduce the temperature to a low setting, cover and cook for about 2 hours. If you have chicken fillet, then the cooking time will be 40 minutes, if pork - then 1, 5 hours will be enough.
Step 2
When the meat is boiled, remove it from the pan and cool, and remove the broth - it can be useful in the future for cooking other dishes.
Step 3
Peel off the first layer of the peel from the red onion and cut it into thin quarter-rings. Then put it in a small cup and add vinegar, sunflower oil, sugar, 0.5 teaspoon salt, black and red peppers to it. Stir and leave to marinate for 20-30 minutes.
Step 4
In the meantime, you can boil the chicken eggs. Place them in a small saucepan or small saucepan with cold, salted water, bring to a boil, and cook for 8-10 minutes. After that, cool them in cold water and, after 5-7 minutes, peel them. After that, take a coarse grater and grate the eggs on it. You can grate cheese immediately on this grater.
Step 5
Cut the pickles in half. Cut each half into strips. Cut the boiled meat into thin cubes, put in a bowl, salt, add a few pinches of ground black pepper and 1 tablespoon of mayonnaise. Then mix everything well. After that, place the meat in a salad bowl in one layer (without tamping).
Step 6
From the cup where the onions were pickled, drain all the liquid, and spread the onions evenly with a layer on top of the meat. Next, spread the pickles and coat them with mayonnaise. After that, lay the eggs, which also need to be covered with mayonnaise. Lastly, the preparation is sprinkled with grated cheese and decorated with parsley sprigs (optional).
Step 7
The "Man's Caprice" salad is now complete. Put it in the refrigerator for a couple of hours so that it is properly soaked, and then you can serve it to the table and delight your loved ones with it.
