Step-by-step cooking
Step 1:
How to make a salad with squid, cheese, egg and cucumber? Prepare the necessary ingredients. You can take any cheese to taste: hard, semi-hard, melted.
Step 2:
Pre-defrost squid, peel and inside. Remove a thin transparent film from the squid carcass. Dip the seafood into boiling salted water, bring to a boil. Cook the squid over moderate heat for about 1 minute. Take them out of the water in time so that they do not become stiff.
Step 3:
Cool the finished squid, cut into thin strips.
Step 4:
Peel the red onion, cut into small cubes. To remove excess bitterness from the onion, pour boiling water over it and leave it to cool. Drain the water.
Step 5:
Boil the eggs. How to cook hard-boiled 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. Leave two egg yolks for the top layer of the salad. Cut the remaining eggs into strips.
Step 6:
Wash cucumbers, dry them. Cut off the tips of the fruit. If the skin is not rough, not damaged and not bitter, it does not need to be cut off. Cut the cucumbers into strips.
Step 7:
Grate the hard cheese on a coarse grater.
Step 8:
You can use a cooking ring to form a salad. Place it on a flat plate. Put the prepared squid on the bottom, press lightly.
Step 9:
Sprinkle the squid on top with red onion.
Step 10:
Apply mayonnaise to the resulting layer.
Step 11:
Then lay out the cucumbers. Flatten and lightly press each layer of lettuce.
Step 12:
Mayonnaise mesh again.
Step 13:
Put sliced eggs on cucumbers and mayonnaise on top.
Step 14:
The next layer is grated cheese.
Step 15:
Cover the cheese layer with a mayonnaise mesh.
Step 16:
Finish the salad with egg yolks grated on a fine grater. Put the salad in the refrigerator for 1 hour to soak it.
Step 17:
Before serving, remove the ring and decorate the salad as desired and to taste.
Step 18:
Bon appetit!
It is better to prepare mayonnaise yourself. It will be tastier and healthier. See here interesting
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.
The salad will look nice and neat if you cut all the ingredients into pieces of the same size and shape (for example, cubes or straws).
Prepare salads only from fully chilled foods. Cooked from warm, the salad can quickly deteriorate.
