Step-by-step cooking
Step 1:
How to make a salad with salmon egg potato and cucumber layers? Prepare the ingredients. For the salad we will need: lightly salted salmon (I have smoked), potatoes, carrots, pickled gherkins, eggs and mayonnaise. For decoration: red caviar and mayonnaise.
Step 2:
Cut the salmon into small cubes.
Step 3:
Hard-boil the eggs. Drain the water, peel the eggs and also grate on a coarse grater.
Step 4:
Boil potatoes and carrots in the peel until tender. Cool and peel the vegetables. Grate the potatoes on a coarse grater.
Step 5:
Exactly the same in a separate bowl, rub the carrots.
Step 6:
Remove the gherkins from the brine and dry. Grate on a coarse grater and squeeze out excess moisture from them.
Step 7:
Form the salad in the cooking ring, carefully tamping each layer and smearing with mayonnaise. Put the gherkins in the first layer. Brush the cucumbers with mayonnaise.
Step 8:
Put grated carrots on the mayonnaise. It is also smeared with mayonnaise.
Step 9:
Then lay out the grated potatoes. I smeared it with a very thin layer of mayonnaise. You can not lubricate at all, since the next layer is fatty salmon.
Step 10:
I also didn't smear the salmon layer with mayonnaise, and it already turns out greasy.
Step 11:
Put the eggs on the salmon.
Step 12:
Tighten the salad with cling film and put it in the refrigerator overnight for impregnation.
Step 13:
The next day, turn the salad onto a serving dish so that a layer of gherkins is on top. Garnish the salad with drops of mayonnaise and red caviar.
My husband loves various salads with red fish very much. Therefore, I periodically look for new interesting recipes for such salads. This recipe interested in the combination of pickled cucumbers with red fish.
It is better to prepare mayonnaise yourself. It will be tastier and healthier. See here interesting
recipes for homemade mayonnaise.
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).
Instead of pickled cucumbers, you can use salted ones. But after grating them on a grater, do not forget to squeeze them out, otherwise while you are forming a salad, the marinade will stand out from them all the time.
