Step 1:

How do you make a "Sail" salad with potato chips? Gather the listed ingredients. You can use smoked chicken from the leg, breast, or thighs. The meat weight is given without bones and skin. Boil the eggs ahead for about ten minutes and cool them. You can make the Korean-style carrots and the chips at home yourself, or buy them. Try to choose whole, unbroken chips. You can assemble the salad in a single bowl, in individual ramekins, or on plates.
Step 2:

Take the smoked chicken out of the package (I have a smoked leg weighing about 350 grams total), pull the meat off the bones, and remove the skin. Cut the chicken into small cubes and lay them in the bottom of the salad bowl.
Step 3:

Each layer of the salad should be coated with a little mayonnaise. You can spoon the mayonnaise onto the layer and spread it gently; or poke a small hole in the mayonnaise lid and pipe a lattice; or transfer the mayonnaise to a piping bag, snip off a corner, and pipe a lattice.
Step 4:

The next layer is the Korean-style carrots. If they're too long, cut them into shorter pieces. Add mayonnaise over the layer of Korean carrots and coat it.
Step 5:

Carefully open the can of corn and drain the liquid. Add the amount of corn you need as the next layer and coat it with mayonnaise.
Step 6:

Peel the boiled, cooled eggs. Finely chop them or grate them on the coarse holes, add them as the next layer, and coat with mayonnaise. You can also just mix the eggs with mayonnaise and add them to the salad.
Step 7:

Break up the chips (set aside 3–4 for the sail garnish) and scatter them over the surface of the salad. Only add the chips to the salad right before serving, or they'll go soft and lose their crunch.
Step 8:

Garnish the salad with the chips you set aside, standing them upright on the surface to look like a sail. Serve the salad right after you assemble it.

It's better to make the mayonnaise yourself — it'll be tastier and healthier. Look here for some interesting homemade mayonnaise recipes. You can also use sour cream or plain yogurt as the dressing instead of mayonnaise. Use them on their own or mix them with mayonnaise in any ratio you like — that will cut down the calories in the dish.
How do you buy good canned corn? Always check the expiration date on the can. If it's a glass jar, take a careful look at the kernels: they should be uniform in size and color, whole, and unblemished. The ingredient list shouldn't include dyes, preservatives, or flavor enhancers.
