  • Start with the ingredients that need cooking. Cover the eggs with cold water and hard-boil them: cook for 5 minutes over medium heat from the time the water boils, then drain and cover with ice water. Leave them until completely cool. Wash, dry, and cut the mushrooms — don't cut the pieces too small, since they'll shrink by about half once cooked. Begin cooking the mushrooms in a dry skillet over high heat. Add them, lower the heat to medium, and cover. Keep them covered until they release their juices, then uncover and cook, stirring, until the liquid evaporates. Finely dice the onion. Once the mushrooms reach that point, add the onion, pour in the vegetable oil, and stir well. Cook until the onion is translucent and lightly golden. While the mushrooms cool (you can spread them on a plate to speed it up), cut the smoked chicken breast into cubes and set it aside on a plate. Peel the eggs and grate them on the large holes into a deep bowl (easier for mixing). Grate the processed cheese on the large holes and add it to the eggs. Add the mayonnaise, pressed garlic, and a little salt, and mix until smooth. Serve the salad on one large flat platter or in individual portions. Lay the fully cooled mushrooms down as the bottom layer. Spread half of the cheese-and-egg mixture over them, then the cubed smoked chicken. Top with the second half of the cheese-and-egg mixture. Wash, dry, and slice the tomatoes into wedges (do this just before serving so they don't weep) and arrange them over the top — and the salad is ready. For the best flavor, let it sit in the fridge for a couple of hours. Serve chilled, garnished with mint sprigs. Enjoy!
