Step 1:
How to cook a New Year's Tiger Salad with chicken For the New Year 2022? Prepare all the products listed in the recipe. Champignons can be taken both fresh and canned.
Step 2:
Prepare the chicken fillet as well. I used turkey fillet this time, it is also perfect for salad.
Step 3:
Peel and chop the onion finely. Rinse the champignons and dry them with napkins. Cut the mushrooms into thin plates.
Step 4:
Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a frying pan. Fry the mushrooms and onions on a high flame, stirring constantly, until all the liquid from the mushrooms evaporates and an appetizing golden color appears.
Step 5:
In a separate saucepan, boil the unpeeled carrots and potatoes, as well as eggs. Cool the vegetables and peel them together with the eggs.
Step 6:
In a frying pan in vegetable oil, fry the chicken fillet, cut into small cubes, until tender. Do not forget to add a little salt and your favorite spices.
Step 7:
Put the mushrooms and onions in a deep container. Try to leave the oil that remains after frying in the pan. Add the fried meat and mayonnaise. How much mayonnaise should I take? The amount depends entirely on your taste preferences. I don't like when salads "float" in mayonnaise, so I always use it at a minimum. Mix everything until smooth.
Step 8:
Put the mushrooms and chicken on the bottom of the serving ring. The recipe used a ring with a diameter of 16 cm .
Step 9:
Next, make a layer with pickled cucumbers, chopped finely.
Step 10:
The next layer will be made of potatoes, grated on a coarse grater. Brush with a small amount of mayonnaise.
Step 11:
Sprinkle evenly with grated cheese and again make a thin layer of mayonnaise.
Step 12:
To form ears, cheeks and chin, grate one or two potatoes on a coarse grater, add cheese with mayonnaise and mix.
Step 13:
From the resulting mass, blind the ears and the lower part of the tiger's muzzle, as in the photo.
Step 14:
Grate the carrot on a fine grater.
Step 15:
Cover the whole salad with carrots.
Step 16:
Cut the eggs in half. Separate the yolks from the whites. Grate the yolks, whites and black olives separately on a fine grater.
Step 17:
Use a toothpick to make the outlines of the tiger's eyes, nose and muzzle line. It will be easier to decorate the salad this way.
Step 18:
Lay out the lower part of the muzzle with grated protein.
Step 19:
Also form the eyes.
Step 20:
Shape the nose with olives, make the pupils and upper eyelid. Here, for convenience, use a toothpick, it is easier to form thin lines from olives.
Step 21:
Make a mouth, stripes on the forehead and cheeks of a tiger. Put the grated yolks in the area of the ears. The tiger is ready!
Step 22:
Let the salad brew for a while in the refrigerator and serve.
Step 23:
Mix all the layers in your plate and enjoy the amazing taste.
To decorate the salad, I needed the whites of three eggs, I used only one yolk.
Olives, as an option, can be cut into thin strips and spread the outlines of the nose, eyes and forehead from them.
Salad inside the Tiger can be absolutely any to your taste. The main thing is that the composition should contain boiled carrots, which in this case is the upper final layer.
Be sure to prepare a salad in the form of a symbol of the upcoming year! Your guests will definitely not remain indifferent and will be surprised!
Bon appetit!
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.
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.
The salad will look nice and neat if you cut all the ingredients into pieces of the same size and shape (for example, cubes).
