Cooking method

Step 1:

For this salad you'll need two molds: a rectangular one for the body of the tank and a small bowl for the turret. Line both with plastic wrap. Divide the ingredients so that 3/4 goes into the body and 1/4 into the turret. The salad is layered, with a lattice of mayonnaise over each layer.
Step 2:

TANK BODY: Grate the pickled cucumbers on a fine grater, squeeze out the liquid, and spread a thin layer on the bottom of the mold. Add a mayonnaise lattice.
Step 3:

For the next layer, cool and peel potatoes boiled in their skins, grate them on a coarse grater, and spread them over the cucumbers. Add a mayonnaise lattice.
Step 4:

For the next layer, cool and peel the hard-boiled eggs, grate them on a fine grater, and spread them over the potatoes. Add a mayonnaise lattice.
Step 5:

The next-to-last layer is pickled honey mushrooms — though you could use pickled button mushrooms, or sauté fresh ones. If the mushrooms are large, cut them, but not too small. Add a mayonnaise lattice.
Step 6:

The last layer is boiled, cooled chicken breast. Cut it up and spread it over the mushrooms. Add a mayonnaise lattice.
Step 7:

TANK TURRET: Use a small bowl for the turret. Since it's awkward to layer inside it, put down a layer of coarsely grated cucumber, then mix the remaining ingredients with mayonnaise and simply pile them into the bowl over the cucumber. ASSEMBLY: Carefully invert the tank body onto a large plate or tray — cover the mold with the tray, flip it over, and gently lift off the mold.
Step 8:

Unmold the turret on top of the body, holding it steady with your hands as you flip it — this part is a bit trickier.
Step 9:

DECORATION: Cut the fresh cucumber into thin rounds and arrange them along the sides of the tank as wheels.
Step 10:

Cut stars from the carrot and use them to decorate the tank. Pipe a message in mayonnaise. Make the gun barrel from two breadsticks. Enjoy!
