Step-by-step cooking

Cooking time: 40 min

Step 1:
Preparing the ingredients. You can take smoked chicken, or boil it in salted water, but with smoked, the taste of the salad turns out to be more original, more fragrant and richer. Radish is better to take a round and large one, but if only an elongated one is available, this one will also work, the flowers will turn out small, in principle like a real violet flower.
Step 2:
The smoked chicken meat is separated from the bones and cut into small pieces.
Step 3:
Cheese is also cut into small cubes. Finely chop the onion.
Step 4:
Hard-boiled eggs, cool. In one egg, the protein is separated from the yolk. We will need part of the yolk to decorate the salad, we finely chop it. Finely chop the eggs or grind them with an egg cutter.
Step 5:
Finely chop a couple of radishes. We leave the rest for salad decoration. We need to cut them into thin circles.
Step 6:
As a dressing, you can simply use mayonnaise or mix mayonnaise and sour cream in equal parts, such a sauce will be more tender for this salad. In a bowl, mix the chopped chicken meat, eggs, radish, cheese, onion, salt to taste, season with sauce, mix. It is better to give the salad a little time to soak in the refrigerator. And we put the salad in the salad bowl. Spinach leaves are well washed and dried with napkins.
Step 7:
As a salad bowl, we take a small bowl, similar to a flower pot, or glass salad bowls. Spread the spinach leaves on top (in a circle). In the middle we spread the flowers from the radish circles, in the center of each we put a little egg yolk. We serve the salad to the table. It turns out pretty fast, simple, beautiful and delicious. You can arrange the salad in small personal cups so that each guest has his own "pot with a violet". Bon appetit!
