Salad Cone with almonds

Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 1 hr

1. STEP 1

   

   How to make Shishka salad with almonds? Prepare the indicated products. You need to take smoked chicken; if it is unavailable, you can replace it with boiled chicken. Pre-boil the potatoes in their skins, boil the eggs until fully cooked and cool. You can take any cheese, with a mildly expressed taste. Mayonnaise for salad dressing, you can use a mixture of mayonnaise and sour cream. Almonds should be roasted. Prepare a festive dish to serve the salad on the table.

2. STEP 2

   

   My potatoes are boiled with their skins on, but you can also take them boiled without skins. Peel the boiled potatoes and grate them on a coarse grater. Add about 1 - 2 tbsp. mayonnaise, mix. If the potatoes have not been salted beforehand, then at this step they should be salted. I will lay out the salad in the form of two cones, but you can lay it out in the form of one or three at once. Place the potatoes on a dish in the form of two ovals, imitating the shape of a cone.

3. STEP 3

   

   I take a leg for the salad. It needs to be milled. Cut the finished pulp into small cubes, add a spoonful of mayonnaise, stir. Place the smoked leg in a second layer, adhering to the given shape.

4. STEP 4

   

   Cut salted or pickled cucumbers into small cubes, add a spoonful of mayonnaise and place in a third layer on the salad.

5. STEP 5

   

   Peel the boiled eggs and grate them on a coarse grater. Mix eggs with mayonnaise and place in the next layer on the salad.

6. STEP 6

   

   Grate the selected cheese. I grated it on a coarse grater and because of this it was difficult to spread the almonds, so it is better to grate the cheese on a medium or fine grater. Mix the grated cheese with mayonnaise (you should add more here) and place it in the next layer in the salad. Coat the salad with mayonnaise so that the layers are not visible.

7. STEP 7

   

   Almonds for salad should be roasted. If it is raw, then it should be fried in a dry frying pan. Place the nuts on the salad, slightly submerging them into the top layer so that they stick. You can lay it out, immersing the nut completely, or you can lay it out so that they stick out like scales on an open cone.

8. STEP 8

   

   The finished salad should be cooled before serving. When serving, you need to wipe the dish with napkins so that no traces of food remain. Decorate the cones, imitating pine needles, with sprigs of rosemary or dill, or all together.

Very beautiful salad! I think that you don’t need to add walnuts at all, because there will be almonds in the salad.

Fiesta, here almonds are used as a decoration; you can’t live without them because they make the salad look like a pine cone. and the walnuts in the salad taste very good! You probably don’t have to put it in, but it’s definitely not superfluous!
