Step 2
Salad "English" - a spicy salad with garlic.
Boil the eggs hard-boiled, cut the ham into thin strips. Peel and chop the garlic, nuts and prunes. Add the mayonnaise and stir in the resulting sauce. Layer the ham and coarsely grated egg whites on a platter. Pour mayonnaise sauce over each layer. Sprinkle the salad with grated yolk on top.
Step 3
Meat salad is an unusual meat salad with cheese and apples.
Boil the beef in salted water, cut into thin slices. Wash the apples, cut out the middle and grate them on a coarse grater. To remove excess water from the glass, discard the pickled mushrooms in a colander. Then chop them finely. Place lettuce leaves on a flat plate and top with chopped meat. Place a grated apple on top of it, put mushrooms on top of the apple. Even out the layers neatly. Sprinkle everything on top with grated cheese and cover with mayonnaise. Garnish with chopped green onions and let sit for 1-2 hours.
