Step-by-step cooking
Step 1:
How to make a Christmas Salad Clock? Prepare the necessary products. You can take any parts of the chicken. I have chicken thighs.
Step 2:
Boil the chicken in boiling salted water until tender. Remove the finished chicken from the broth and cool. Separate the meat from the bones and cut into small pieces. To make the meat juicy, be sure to lower the chicken into boiling water.
Step 3:
Hard-boil the eggs. How to cook eggs? Fill them with cold water, bring to a boil. Cook the eggs over moderate heat for 7-8 minutes after boiling. Immediately lower the boiled eggs into cold water so that the shell is easier to clean. When the eggs have cooled, peel them and divide them into whites and yolks. Grate the proteins on a coarse grater.
Step 4:
Also grind the hard cheese on a coarse grater.
Step 5:
Place the cooking ring on the plate (I have a diameter of 18 cm). Put half of the chopped chicken in the first layer. Press the layers lightly.
Step 6:
Apply mayonnaise on top.
Step 7:
Then lay out the Korean carrots. I didn't lubricate this layer.
Step 8:
Spread the remaining chicken on the carrot layer. You can put the chicken in one layer (the very first). I divided it into two. Again, a mesh of mayonnaise.
Step 9:
The next layer is grated cheese and mayonnaise.
Step 10:
Then grated egg whites and mayonnaise again.
Step 11:
On the protein layer, grate the egg yolks on a fine grater, distributing them evenly over the entire surface of the salad. Put the salad in the refrigerator for 2 hours to soak it.
Step 12:
To decorate the salad, cook the carrots. Pour water over the vegetable, bring to a boil and cook over moderate heat until soft. Cool and peel the finished carrots. Cut part of the carrot into thin circles (12 pcs.) preferably of the same size and one smaller (in the center). Cut the rest of the carrots lengthwise into plates and cut out the small and large arrows. Remove the serving ring, put the carrot blanks on top of the salad in the form of a clock face.
Step 13:
Place half an olive on the central circle. On the carrot circles, draw Roman numerals with mayonnaise in order from 1 to 12. Decorate the "dial" with parsley leaves. Salad for the New Year years. Bon appetit!
Chicken can be replaced with turkey or any other type of meat at your request. But keep in mind that in this case, the cooking time and calorie content of the dish will change.
Prepare salads only from fully chilled foods. Cooked from warm, the salad can quickly deteriorate.
It is better to prepare mayonnaise yourself. It will be tastier and healthier. See the interesting ones here
homemade mayonnaise recipes.
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.
