It is necessary
- - 500 g chicken fillet;
- - 500 g of potatoes;
- - 5 chicken eggs;
- - 4 quail eggs (for decoration);
- - 250 g of fresh cucumbers;
- - 100 g of onions;
- - vegetable oil;
- - mayonnaise.
Instructions
Step 1
First, boil the chicken fillet in salted water (about 20 minutes after boiling the water).
Step 2
Peel the onion, cut it into small pieces, fill it with boiling water and leave for 10 minutes (this is necessary so that the onion does not taste bitter). After the specified time, drain the water and rinse the onion under cold running water.
Step 3
Wash the potatoes, peel them and cut them into small strips or grate them for making Korean salads.
Step 4
Put the potatoes cut into strips in a pan, after adding a little vegetable oil to it, and fry it until golden brown. To prevent the potatoes from sticking together during frying, they should be fried in small portions.
Step 5
Peel the cucumbers and cut into thin strips. Peel the pre-boiled eggs, separate the whites from the yolks and rub the whites on a fine grater. We wash the greens under running water, dry them with a paper towel and chop them with a knife.
Step 6
Combine in a salad bowl all the ingredients prepared for the dish (potatoes, proteins, onions, chicken fillet and cucumbers cut into thin strips), season with mayonnaise and mix everything thoroughly. A small amount of fried potatoes should be left to decorate the salad.
Step 7
Sprinkle the finished salad with chopped herbs, make a small depression in the middle, into which we spread the boiled and peeled quail eggs. Decorate the salad in a circle with fried potato strips.
