Potato chips - this is perhaps just the product that almost everyone likes, despite all its exceptional harmfulness to the body and unreasonably high prices. It’s not in vain that chips are a successful attempt to sell just one potato at the cost of a kilogram. Every day, of course, you should not feast on chips, but occasionally you can neglect the advice of doctors and prepare yourself and your family such a salad for dinner. And for a feast, Sunflower salad with chips, the recipe of which will be given below, is the most.
Sunflower Salad: cooking
Finely chop the chicken fillet (300 g) and fry it until cooked in butter or vegetable oil. More dietary will be such a method of heat treatment of poultry meat, as cooking it in a double boiler. Hard-boiled eggs (3 pieces) grate on a coarse grater. Do the same with boiled carrots (1-2 pieces).
Cut the onion head or leek into half rings, and fresh mushrooms (300 g) into thin slices. Some prefer to use pickled mushrooms as an ingredient, but their taste, alas, leaves much to be desired. Fry the mushrooms and onions in a pan with butter until cooked.
Put 2-3 lettuce leaves on a flat wide dish - they will play the role of flower leaves. From above, start spreading the Sunflower salad with chips, the recipe of which involves the alternation of layers and mayonnaise. First, lay the chicken fillet in a circle in an even layer, and carrots on it. Then comes the turn of mushrooms with fried onions and grated eggs.
But for now, you just got a regular puff salad. To turn it into a Sunflower salad with chips, the recipe requires a rather complicated decoration. Gently place the oval chips on the dish with the salad (as a rule, Pringles chips are ideal for this) so that they depict the petals of the flower. For the top layer (what comes after eggs and mayonnaise) use canned corn kernels. They should be laid out manually and in a particularly artistic order - in the form of a mesh that is made on the surface of some pies. In each empty rhombus (it should be with a side of about 2 cm) place a half of the olive, cut lengthwise. Olives are called upon to play the role of sunflower seeds. By the way, this salad will acquire a more exotic taste if olives are replaced with fresh blackcurrant berries.
Well, now that you’ve become familiar with a dish such as Sunflower Salad with Chips, the recipe for which, in principle, is quite simple, let's talk about other culinary ideas that can be translated into reality using the same chips.
To begin with, it is not at all necessary to cook a sunflower according to this recipe. You can safely turn your favorite salad (and even the same crab) into a similar beauty.
All kinds of snacks on chips are perfect for receptions . First, you cook some salad (olivier, beetroot, sea cocktail, cheese and garlic mass, etc.), and then just lay it out with a tablespoon of chips. All this is neatly placed on a large flat dish decorated with lettuce. True, there is one caveat. Potato chips are very quickly saturated with mayonnaise and become soft, so these snacks should be prepared directly for serving.
Chips are also suitable for fish snacks. For example, you can take Russian Potato airy potato chips and put a small amount of red caviar on each chipsin. And use the same “Moscow Potato” or “Estrella” as follows. Cut the salted salmon into small thin slices and arrange them in chips. And on top of each such portion, make a “rosette” of mascarpone using the culinary sleeve.
