Delicious Princess salad can be prepared in several ways. Which one to choose is up to you. Any way will please the family. These dishes are suitable for a holiday, and for a family dinner.
Red fish salad with apples
Let's start cooking the first Princess salad. The recipe is simple. To prepare six servings, you must take:
- 1 can of canned salmon (instead of it you can boil or bake about 200 g of trout or salmon);
- 0.5 medium onion;
- 5-6 pcs. boiled chicken eggs;
- 150-200 g of cheese "Russian";
- 1 large apple or 2 medium;
- half a can of canned corn;
- one teaspoon of lemon juice;
- ground pepper;
- a pinch of salt to taste;
- mayonnaise.
As decorations you need:
- 200-300 grams of slightly salted trout or salmon;
- 1 tablespoon of red caviar;
- 1 or 2 pcs. boiled quail eggs;
- 3 or 4 tablespoons of cream cheese;
- dill, parsley.
Cooking process
First you need to remove the liquid from canned fish, then get large bones, and knead the fish with a fork.
Chopped peeled onions.
Boil quail eggs, get the yolks. Put the chopped yolks in a separate bowl, and grate the squirrels finely on the other.
Drain canned corn.
Part of the cheese must be grated on the smallest grater, and part on the coarse.
Wash the apples, cut the peel, get rid of the seeds, but only immediately before assembling the salad, grind with a coarse grater (so that the fruits do not have time to oxidize and darken).
Next, the Princess salad with red fish is laid out on a plate in layers:
- lower - fish;
- the second layer is a little pepper onion;
- the third is slightly salted yolks with mayonnaise;
- the fourth layer - grated apples with lemon juice and pepper;
- fifth - cheese with mayonnaise;
- the sixth layer - canned corn;
- seventh — proteins mixed with a pinch of salt and mayonnaise.
If you wish, the sequence of layers can be changed, but the top layer should remain the same.
Decoration
Freeze salmon or trout a little and thinly cut into slices. Then cut the same slices into even narrower strips. They decorate the Princess salad, a photo of which is presented in the article, similar to “wickerwork”. From several pieces of salmon, you can make roses and place them in the middle.
Spread the quail eggs in half and spread on the surface of the salad.
An additional decoration can be a little red caviar.
Using the nozzle "asterisk" can also be a cream cheese at room temperature to make flowers.
At the end of cooking, the resulting Princess salad should be covered with cling film (this will protect the greens from wilting, and the products will remain fresh) and leave in the refrigerator for 12 hours. When serving, do not forget to remove the film.
