Mistress salad with beetroot carrot and raisins classic

Step-by-step cooking

1. Step 1:

   

   How to make a classic Mistress salad with beets, carrots and raisins? Prepare the products. Choose medium-sized vegetables so that they weigh about the same (carrots and beets). Take natural, high-quality cheese, without vegetable fats in the composition. Raisins — pitted, nuts — already peeled. You can make mayonnaise yourself.

2. Step 2:

   

   Wash, peel and grate the carrots on a medium grater. I recommend the medium one — on a large salad it will turn out to be rough, on a small one it is too puree-like. If the carrots are very juicy, then squeeze out a little juice, otherwise the finished salad may "float". Transfer the carrots to a separate bowl.

3. Step 3:

   

   Grate the cheese on the same medium grater. Also put it in a separate bowl.

4. Step 4:

   

   Boiled beetroot is taken for salad. How to cook beets? Wash the root vegetables well, put them in a saucepan, fill with cold water. Put it to cook over medium heat. After boiling, reduce the heat and cook the beets for 1-1.5 hours, depending on the size. Check readiness with a knife — it should easily pierce the vegetable. Cool and peel the finished beets. Grate it on a medium grater.

5. Step 5:

   

   Prepare the raisins. How to steam raisins correctly? Pour well-washed raisins with hot water and leave for 10-15 minutes. During this time, it will become soft.

6. Step 6:

   

   Drain the water and dry it with paper towels.

7. Step 7:

   

   Add the raisins to the bowl with the carrots. Put two spoons of mayonnaise in it, mix.

9. Step 8:

   

   Peel the garlic and pass it through a press into a bowl with cheese. Add mayonnaise (2 tablespoons), mix.

10. Step 9:

    

    Put the remaining two spoons of mayonnaise in the beetroot, mix. In general, you can adjust the amount of mayonnaise depending on the juiciness of the resulting ingredients. In cheese, for example, I added more, in beetroot — less.

11. Step 10:

    

    Salad Mistress is laid out in layers, you can put it in a salad bowl, you can put it on a plate with a ring. Put the first layer of carrots with raisins. Tamp it with a spoon.

12. Step 11:

    

    Next, put a layer of cheese, also tamp it.

13. Step 12:

    

    The last layer is beetroot. In some recipes, nuts are added to the beet layer, I decided to just put them on top of the salad. See according to your taste.

14. Step 13:

    

    Chop the nuts finely with a knife. You can pre—dry them slightly in a dry frying pan - the nuts will become more fragrant.

15. Step 14:

    

    Sprinkle nuts over the top of the salad. Release it from the ring and serve it to the table. The salad does not need time for impregnation, since the layers are not smeared with mayonnaise, but mixed with it. Bon appetit!
