  1. Step 1:

    Step 1.

    How to make Mimosa salad with canned food and rice? Prepare the products. Any fish will do — saury, herring, mackerel, pink salmon. Choose only canned in its own juice. Pre-boil the carrots and eggs and cool them. It is better to take round rice, it will turn out not so crumbly, this is important for a salad. It also needs to be boiled in advance. Choose a high-quality cheese, without milk fat substitutes, one that will be easy to grate.

  2. Step 2:

    Step 2.

    Boil the rice. How to cook rice? Put a saucepan on the fire, boil water in it. Pour in the pre-washed rice, add a little salt. Cook the rice over low heat until tender — about 10-15 minutes, depending on the variety. It should become soft, but not boil into porridge. Put the finished rice on a sieve, let the water drain and cool completely. I was making a salad in a ring. Put the first layer of rice, spread it evenly, then lubricate the rice layer with mayonnaise.

  3. Step 3:

    Step 3.

    Open a can of canned food and take the fish out of it on a separate plate. Mash the pieces with a fork. Put the fish in the second layer. Smear it with mayonnaise. It took me a tablespoon of mayonnaise for each layer.

  4. Step 4:

    Step 4.

    Wash and dry the onions and green onions. Peel the onion and cut it smaller, such slicing is tastier in salads. Cut the green one as well. Put the onion in a thin layer on the fish, and carefully arrange the chopped green around the edges — due to this, the salad will have a beautiful green layer. You do not need to lubricate the onion with mayonnaise.

  5. Step 5:

    Step 5.

    Boil and cool the eggs. How to cook eggs? So that the eggs do not crack when cooking, put them in cold water and put them to cook on a small fire. Boil the eggs for 9 minutes after boiling, then pour cold water and cool. From a sharp temperature drop, the shell will be better cleaned. Divide the peeled eggs into whites and yolks. Grate the proteins on a coarse grater, put an even layer on the onion. Brush the protein layer with mayonnaise. The yolks will be used for decoration.

  6. Step 6:

    Step 6.

    Boil and cool the carrots. How to cook carrots? Wash it and put it in a saucepan with cold water. Cook the carrots after boiling over low heat for 20-25 minutes, depending on the size. Check readiness with a sharp knife — it should easily pierce it. Peel the cooled carrots and grate them on a coarse grater. Put a layer of carrots on the egg, smear it with mayonnaise.

  7. Step 7:

    Step 7.

    Grate the cheese on a coarse grater, lay out the last layer. It is also smeared with mayonnaise. Remove the salad for an hour in the refrigerator, for stabilization and impregnation.

  8. Step 8:

    Step 8.

    Then carefully remove the ring.

  9. Step 9:

    Step 9.

    Rub the yolks on a fine grater right on top of the salad.

  10. Step 10:

    Step 10.

    Decorate the salad to your liking. I used a small boiled carrot and parsley. Serve the salad on the table. Bon appetit!

In this version, Mimosa salad is also very tasty and more satisfying. To make it even more tender, I advise you to rub all the products on a medium grater. Salad can be made not only in a ring, but also in a deep transparent salad bowl.

It is better to prepare mayonnaise yourself. It will be tastier and healthier. See the interesting ones here recipes for homemade mayonnaise.
Also, as a dressing, you can use not only mayonnaise, but also sour cream or natural yogurt. They can be taken separately or mixed with mayonnaise in any proportion to your taste - this will reduce the calorie content of the dish.

Shake the can before buying. The more liquid there is in it, the smaller the fish.

Prepare salads only from fully chilled foods. Cooked from warm, the salad can quickly deteriorate.
