We will need:
- Herring fillet - 2 pcs.
- Potatoes - 3 pcs.
- Carrots - 2 pcs.
- Beetroot - 1 pc.
- Onion - 1-2 pcs.
- Eggs - 4 -5 pcs.
- Mayonnaise - 250 g
- Salt - to taste
Let's start cooking by preparing the vegetables. Cut the onion into four parts and cut into thin quarters. Pour some vegetable oil into the frying pan and add chopped onion. Fry it over low heat until golden brown.
Wash and bake carrots, beets and potatoes in their skins in the oven in special baking bags until fully cooked. It's better to prepare them in advance.
Bake vegetables in different bags separately from each other for 40 minutes at 180°C. With this method of preparation, they retain their juiciness, bright color, and vitamins.
Peel the cooled vegetables and grate them individually on a coarse or medium grater. Place them on plates separately from each other.
Boil the eggs hard, cool and peel them. We divide them into yolks and whites. Mash the yolks with a fork and grate the whites on a coarse grater.
We clean the herring fillet from skin and bones. Cut the salted fish into small cubes.
Let's start assembling the salad. Let's do this using a form. Place it on a dish. And we start filling it out. Place the grated potatoes in the first layer. Lightly salt it and carefully level it. Cover the top with a mesh of mayonnaise.
Place finely chopped herring on the potatoes. Distribute over the entire surface and level.
Place the fried, cooled onions on the herring layer. It will give softness and tenderness to the dish and add special flavor notes.
The onion layer is juicy, so there is no point in lubricating it with mayonnaise. Place chopped yolks on it. Let's spread them out in an even layer.
Then it was the turn of the grated carrots. Place it in the mold and distribute it evenly over the entire surface. Let's salt it a little.
Now you need to add a gentle sauce to soak the layers. Apply a mesh of mayonnaise on top of the carrot layer.
To make a mayonnaise mesh, you can either use a special device in the form of a plastic bottle with a lid that has several holes, or you can make it yourself. You can cut off a small tip of the corner on the mayonnaise package itself, or put the sauce in a plastic bag and also cut off the corner. The hole should be small so that the pressure jet leaves a thin mark.
Now add the grated beets. Carefully spread it over the entire surface and level it. Lightly sprinkle with salt. Lubricate the top generously with mayonnaise. And no longer in a mesh, but in an even layer.
Pour grated protein onto mayonnaise. We distribute it over the surface. And now we send the salad to steep for 2-3 hours. You can cover the top with cling film to prevent the protein from airing.
After our food has steeped, we carefully remove it from the mold and decorate it with herbs or vegetables.
Now the food can be brought to the table. Fur coat lovers will appreciate its unusual and juicy flavors. It's the roasted vegetables that add those savory notes. A tender and appetizing dish will perfectly complement a festive table or Sunday gatherings.
