Royal salad - 4 cooking recipes

If you use your own imagination and get hold of Royal salad recipes with step-by-step photos found on the Internet/magazine/cookbook, you can mix almost any ingredients with each other to get a delicious dish. You don’t have to follow the instructions exactly: if you don’t like a product, it’s better to replace it with another.

One of the options for the finished dish: beef fried with pickled onions and mixed with carrots, eggs, apples, cheese and nuts. Beef is replaced with chicken or, say, ham

The composition can include any products: shrimp, red caviar, other seafood, meat products, boiled and raw vegetables, grated or cut into pieces fruits - apples, pineapples, kiwi. Also boiled rice, canned corn, green peas. Meat products can be subjected to heat treatment: frying, boiling, baking in the oven. Sometimes they are pre-marinated. There are options for vegetarians, vegans, and raw foodists. You can make pancakes, regular or egg, slice them or decorate a holiday appetizer with them.

Since a salad with this name, as we found out, often decorates the table for the holidays, it is worth taking its design and decoration seriously. Almost any salad laid out in layers looks advantageous. You can use a round or rectangular springform cake pan for these purposes. When the pan is removed, the edges of the salad remain smooth. You can make flower decorations from boiled carrots, raw tomatoes, and cucumbers. You can lay out the salad in the shape of an animal (especially if you are preparing it for the New Year), and then “decorate” it with colored vegetables: orange carrots, red beets, green spinach, yellow peppers, etc. A simple and quick way to decorate is to place the salad in portioned bowls or tall glasses.
