Step-by-step cooking
Step 1:
How to make a bacon salad? Prepare the specified ingredients. Wash and dry the vegetables. Boil the quail eggs until tender and cool. The dressing will be a mixture of oil and lemon juice, but you can use the sauce to your liking.
Step 2:
Fry the bacon on both sides in a frying pan over medium heat until browned. Then put it on a paper towel to get rid of excess fat. I didn't use oil for frying bacon.
Step 3:
Put the lettuce leaves in a deep salad bowl (I used a ready-to-eat salad in a bag). To do this, tear the Peking cabbage or lettuce in a bouquet with your hands or cut into strips.
Step 4:
Place the fried bacon on top of the salad leaves. I didn't cut it into smaller pieces, but you can do it if you want.
Step 5:
Peel boiled quail eggs from the shell, cut in half and put in a salad dish.
Step 6:
Cut the cherry tomatoes in half and add to the salad.
Step 7:
Cut the cucumber into circles or semicircles and put it with the rest of the prepared ingredients. I didn't peel the cucumber off. But if you use greenhouse cucumbers with a hard peel, it is better to clean them.
Step 8:
Season the finished salad with sauce, add salt to taste, mix and serve immediately. Mix without pressure, preferably with two spatulas, holding them in both hands. Make sure not to crumple the products so that they remain beautiful and whole. Bon appetit!
A light salad with fresh tomatoes and cucumbers, supplemented with fried bacon and boiled eggs will make a wonderful full-fledged dinner. A simple vegetable salad is suitable for both women's and men's menus. Changing the salad dressing sauce to your liking, you can open it from a new side every time.
Even replacing vegetable oil with olive, corn, sunflower and others, you can get new flavors!
Root vegetables are best washed with a brush or a hard sponge under running water.
