Step-by-step preparation of a salad with mushrooms and chicken for the New Year 2018
If you have not boiled eggs, potatoes, carrots and fillets yet, then rather put everything on the stove. This is the most time consuming process in cooking. While everything is being cooked, let's take care of mushrooms and onions. We cut them into small cubes.
Fry mushrooms and onions in a pan with the addition of vegetable or butter.
All vegetables and meat are boiled. Let us cool them down a bit and prepare them for salad. We clean the eggs and three on a grater. Set aside the white of two eggs for garnish. Disassemble the chicken fillet by hand or cut into cubes. Cut the potatoes into small cubes.
Grate the carrots and the deferred proteins on a fine grater. We need them for decoration.
We put all the ingredients for the salad in a bowl, add mayonnaise.
Stir and remove the sample. Salt and pepper as needed.
We spread the mass on a plate in the form of a cone with a wrapped top. This is a blank for a hat, now it does not look much like it, but after decoration it will play differently.
We cover the surface with carrots. At the bottom and at the very tip, we leave a little bare salad.
Slightly grease the bare areas of the salad with mayonnaise and sprinkle them with protein. You do not need to press down on it. This is "fur", so let it puff up.
You can leave the salad like this, or you can decorate with mayonnaise patterns. Bright pomegranate and corn kernels will not spoil the look of the salad for the New Year 2018!
Ready salad with chicken and mushrooms in the form of "Santa Claus's Cap" can be stored in the refrigerator for about 5 hours by wrapping it in cling film or covering it with a lid so that it does not weather.
