Salad with lightly salted trout and cucumber

Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 1 hr

1. STEP 1

   

   How to make a salad with lightly salted trout? Prepare the necessary products. Remove the olives from the jar to drain excess liquid. To dress the salad, you can use sour cream, yogurt or mayonnaise. Or use a mixture of these ingredients.

2. STEP 2

   

   Pre-boil the potatoes until tender over moderate heat. Check the readiness of the vegetable with a knife. If the potatoes are soft and easily pierced, they are cooked. Cool the finished potatoes completely, peel them and cut into small cubes.

3. STEP 3

   

   Remove the skin from the trout fillet and remove any bones. Cut the fish into small cubes.

4. STEP 4

   

   Boil the eggs hard. 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. Peel the cooled eggs and cut into small cubes. I chopped two eggs. I left one egg to decorate the salad on top.

5. STEP 5

   

   Wash fresh cucumbers well and dry. Cut the cucumbers into small cubes. The skin, if it is not rough, damaged or bitter, does not need to be cut off.

6. STEP 6

   

   Also cut the olives into small cubes.

7. STEP 7

   

   Place a cooking ring on a flat plate. Place the sliced ​​potatoes in the first layer and press down with a spoon.

8. STEP 8

   

   Brush the potato layer with sour cream (mayonnaise or yogurt).

9. STEP 9

   

   Place lightly salted trout in the next layer and press lightly.

10. STEP 10

    

    Apply sour cream to the fish layer.

11. STEP 11

    

    Then spread the fresh cucumbers in an even layer.

12. STEP 12

    

    And brush the layer with sour cream again.

13. STEP 13

    

    Cover the cucumber layer with chopped eggs and brush with sour cream.

14. STEP 14

    

    Place the final layer of chopped olives. Brush the top of the salad with sour cream. If mayonnaise is used, then the salad does not need to be salted. But be guided by your taste. I didn't add salt to the salad. Trout and olives will add a certain saltiness. Place the salad in the refrigerator for 1-1.5 hours to soak and become juicier.

15. STEP 15

    

    Before serving, decorate the salad as desired. I used finely grated egg yolk and white.

16. STEP 16

    

    Remove the cooking ring and add fresh herbs to the salad and, if desired, a slice of lemon. Bon appetit!
