Salad with salmon, eggs, potatoes and cucumber in layers

Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 1 hr

1. STEP 1

   

   How to make a salad with salmon, eggs, potatoes and cucumber in layers? Prepare your ingredients. For the salad we will need: lightly salted salmon (I used smoked salmon), potatoes, carrots, pickled gherkins, eggs and mayonnaise. For decoration: red caviar and mayonnaise.

2. STEP 2

   

   Cut the salmon into small cubes.

3. STEP 3

   

   Boil the eggs hard. Drain the water, peel the eggs and grate them on a coarse grater.

4. STEP 4

   

   Boil potatoes and carrots in their skins until tender. Cool and peel the vegetables. Grate the potatoes on a coarse grater.

5. STEP 5

   

   Exactly the same, grate the carrots into a separate bowl.

6. STEP 6

   

   Remove the gherkins from the brine and dry. Grate on a coarse grater and squeeze out excess moisture.

7. STEP 7

   

   Form the salad in a culinary ring, carefully compacting each layer and coating with mayonnaise. Place the gherkins as the first layer. Lubricate the cucumbers with mayonnaise.

8. STEP 8

   

   Place grated carrots on mayonnaise. Lubricate it with mayonnaise as well.

9. STEP 9

   

   Next add the grated potatoes. I coated it with a very thin layer of mayonnaise. You don’t have to lubricate it at all, since the next layer is fatty salmon.

10. STEP 10

    

    I also didn’t coat the salmon layer with mayonnaise, as it already turns out greasy.

11. STEP 11

    

    Place eggs on salmon.

12. STEP 12

    

    Cover the salad with cling film and place in the refrigerator overnight to soak.

13. STEP 13

    

    The next day, turn the salad over onto a serving plate so that the layer of gherkins is on top. Decorate the salad with mayonnaise drops and red caviar.
