Cooking method

Step 1:

Boil the chicken breast and potato. Peel the onion and carrot.
Step 2:

Dice the onion and fry it in vegetable oil.
Step 3:

Add the carrot, grated on the coarse side of a box grater, and cook everything for 2 minutes. Add the boiled chicken breast, cut into small pieces, to the carrot. Season with salt and pepper.
Step 4:

Combine the mayonnaise (30 g) with the minced garlic.
Step 5:

Cut the tomatoes into thin rounds.
Step 6:

Hard-boil the eggs and grate them on the coarse side of a box grater.
Step 7:

Grate the cheese and the boiled potato on the coarse grater and mix them with the garlic mayonnaise.
Step 8:

Set a ring mold in the center of a plate (or use a 500 ml tin can with both ends cut off). Layer the salad into the mold, spreading each layer with a thin coat of mayonnaise and pressing it down with a spoon. Order of layers: the carrot mixture, eggs, tomatoes, then the potato-cheese layer.
Step 9:

Carefully lift off the mold.
Step 10:

Mound any remaining ingredients on top. Coat all sides with a thin layer of mayonnaise and press breadcrumbs onto the sides of the salad. Drizzle the rest of the mayonnaise over the top to mimic the glaze of a kulich.
Step 11:

Garnish with diced tomato, green onion, and pieces of cheese to imitate the colorful sprinkles on a kulich. Spell out letters cut from tomato slices. Enjoy!
