  1. STEP 1

    STEP 1

    How to make herring under a fur coat with an egg? Prepare your food. You can take the herring in the form of ready-made fillets, it will be more convenient and faster. Rinse the vegetables thoroughly to remove any dirt. Then boil the beets and potatoes in separate pans in boiling water until tender. It takes 15-20 minutes to cook the potatoes. Cooking beets takes 1-1.5 hours, depending on their size. Check readiness with a sharp knife - it should easily pierce the root vegetable.

  2. STEP 2

    STEP 2

    Boil the eggs as well. How to hard boil eggs? To prevent eggs from cracking during cooking, place them in cold water and cook over low heat. Boil the eggs for 9 minutes after boiling, then cover with cold water and cool. The shell will be better cleaned from a sharp temperature change. Cool and peel the cooled eggs, potatoes and beets.

  3. STEP 3

    STEP 3

    Peel the onion, rinse in cold water and finely chop. Place the chopped onion in a deep plate and pour 9% vinegar over it. Leave the onion to marinate for 10-15 minutes. Then drain the vinegar and rinse the onion once in cold water. Pickled onions give the finished salad a unique taste and aroma. But you can use the onions immediately, without pickling.

    Salad "Herring under a fur coat" is traditionally laid out in layers. I will use a culinary ring. Grate the potatoes on a coarse grater and place them in the first layer on the bottom of the mold. Press down a little with a press or spoon. Spread a layer of potatoes with a small amount of mayonnaise.

  5. STEP 5

    STEP 5

    Finely chop the herring fillet. If you have a whole fish, first gut it and fillet it. How to properly fillet a whole fish? Remove the tail, head and fins. Cut along the ridge of the carcass to the spine. Turn over onto its side. Using a sharp knife, cut the meat from the spinal bone. Turn the carcass over and cut off the fillet on the other side. Clean the inside, removing the black film, as it is bitter and will spoil the taste. Rinse and dry well.

This version of herring under a fur coat with an egg is a little unusual, but very tasty. I replaced the onions with green onions. Onions sprouted on my windowsill and I couldn’t wait to use the green feathers somewhere) I had pickled herring, it fit perfectly into this layered salad. I like herring under a fur coat because it can be prepared for a holiday table or just for dinner. I coated the layers with low-calorie mayonnaise; it is not as tasty as regular mayonnaise, but it has fewer calories. The salad sat in the refrigerator overnight. I ate this little sample right for breakfast, I had a very tasty breakfast) The salad is hearty, there are vegetables and fish, it can replace a full meal. Great recipe!

My favorite salad! I always make it with an egg, we like it better. I only rub the vegetables on a fine grater, and cut the herring into fibers with my hands. It turns out very tender. Thanks to the author!!!
