The combination of ingredients is wonderfully harmonious, to my taste. This salad is always a hit on our holiday table.

  • Boil the chicken, vegetables, and eggs ahead of time. Fry the finely chopped mushrooms with finely chopped garlic until done, and let everything cool. Just before assembling the salad, peel and finely grate the vegetables. Cut the chicken into small cubes (about 1/4 inch). To assemble: 1. Spread a layer of mayonnaise on the dish, the width of the salad. 2. Add a layer of grated potatoes across the whole width, pressing them lightly into the mayonnaise. 3. Spread a layer of carrots over the potatoes, leaving about 1/4 inch bare around the edge. Spread on a little mayonnaise. 4. Next layer: the chopped chicken, across the full width. 5. Add a layer of mushrooms over the chicken, a bit narrower than the rest. Spread mayonnaise over the whole width again. 6. Set the eggs, cut in half, cut-side down, on the mayonnaise. Coat the eggs with mayonnaise on top. 7. As the final layer, spread the grated cheese evenly, shaping the salad into snowdrifts. The salad is ready — chill it briefly, about 15 minutes in the fridge, and serve! Enjoy!
