Salad with Canned Saury, Cucumber, and Egg

Cooking method

1. Step 1:

   

   How do you make a salad with canned saury, cucumber, and egg? Gather the ingredients listed for the salad. Use fresh cucumbers and eggs, and whichever canned saury — or similar fish in oil — you like the taste of best. Choose the mayonnaise to your own preference, too: you can use a low-calorie one or one made with quail eggs, but it's best to make your own.

2. Step 2:

   

   Open the can of saury, drain off the liquid, transfer the fish to a plate, and mash it with a fork until smooth.

3. Step 3:

   

   Wash the cucumbers and pat them dry with a towel. If the cucumber skin is tough, it's better to peel it off; if it's thin, you can leave it on, which makes the salad more colorful. Grate the cucumbers on the coarse side of a grater, salt them, and stir. Let them sit for 10 minutes, then squeeze the cucumber pulp out well with your hands.

4. Step 4:

   

   Boil the eggs for 10 minutes, cover them with cold water, then peel off the shells. Grate the eggs on the coarse side of a grater.

5. Step 5:

   

   Wash and dry the green onion and chop it not too coarsely.

6. Step 6:

   

   Set a serving ring on a plate. For the first layer, spread out the saury, press the pieces down lightly with a spoon, and coat with mayonnaise.

7. Step 7:

   

   For the second layer, spread out the cucumbers, again pressing down a little and coating with mayonnaise.

8. Step 8:

   

   For the third layer, spread out the eggs, press down with a spoon, and coat with mayonnaise.

9. Step 9:

   

   Lift off the serving ring. Garnish the top of the salad with green onion.

10. Step 10:

    

    The salad is ready. Serve it right away.

11. Step 11:

    

    This is what the layers of the canned-saury salad look like. But you can also just toss all the ingredients together in a bowl and dress with mayonnaise. Enjoy!
