A juicy and nutritious green bean salad with egg can be prepared in 10-15 minutes for lunch or dinner.
For those who follow their figure, it is best to season it with sour cream with low fat content, and in general, dishes with the addition of boiled chicken eggs are flavored with mayonnaise. In addition, when dressing with sour cream, it is recommended to eat the salad immediately, as the shelf life is reduced, but its taste becomes more delicate and rich.
If desired, you can add various fresh herbs: green onions, dill, parsley, etc. Chicken eggs must be boiled in salted water in advance for about 12 minutes, timing the time from the moment of boiling. Then cool sharply in ice water and peel off the shell.
Ingredients:
Green beans - 200 g
Boiled chicken egg - 2 pcs.
Green onions - 5 pcs.
Sour cream of any fat content - 50 g
Salt and pepper to taste.
Preparation:
1. Rinse the beans in water, cut the tails on both sides of the pods and cut into portions. Put in a saucepan and cover with hot water, lightly salt. Boil for 5-7 minutes so that the slices do not lose their shape, but lose their density and become soft. Throw in a colander and drain off excess liquid - it is completely useless in the salad! Using frozen beans, you can not defrost them, but put them in a saucepan with hot water and boil a little more time - 7-9 minutes.
2. Place the boiled green beans in a deep container.
3. Rinse boiled chicken eggs, cooled and peeled, in water so that even a small part of the shell does not get into the dish. Cut into small to medium cubes and add to the container. If you like smaller cuts, then the beans can be chopped with a knife on a board, and the eggs can be grated with large cells.
4. Rinse the green onion stalks, chop and add to the container. At this moment, you can add other chopped greens - if desired. It is permissible to replace green onions with pickled onions - for this it is recommended to peel the vegetable, rinse and cut into small cubes, pour over with table vinegar and leave for 5 minutes. Then wring out and use as directed.
5. Add sour cream of any fat content or mayonnaise to the container: garlic, classic, with the addition of grain mustard. Pepper, add salt, mix all the ingredients of the dish together.
6. Put the prepared salad on plates or salad bowls, garnish with fresh herbs and serve immediately after dressing.
