Every year this salad is on our New Year's table! And not only with us))
My dad calls her "correct". And precisely because our herring is the lowest layer. Not potatoes, not carrots, but herring. And the "fur coat" is already on top.
I want to note right away: I am not claiming that this particular recipe is the only correct one! He is right for our family. Share in the comments your recipes for herring under a fur coat, if you cook it in some other way.
Recipe:
• Herring - 2 pcs.
• Boiled potatoes - 4-5 pcs.
• Onions (pickled) - 1 pc.
• Boiled eggs - 3 pcs.
• Boiled carrots - 2 pcs.
• Boiled beets - 5 pcs.
• Mayonnaise
I disassemble the herring into fillets, remove all the bones and cut into small cubes. I spread it in the first layer in a deep dish or salad bowl.
A little mayonnaise. And then the bow.
I also finely chop the onion. I fill it with cold water with vinegar and leave it there for 15 minutes. Then I drain the water and put the onion on the herring. I distribute.
Next is a layer of potatoes. I rub it on a coarse grater. Lubricate with mayonnaise.
Mom never added eggs to this salad. Only herring and vegetables. But today I will add boiled eggs (my husband said that they always added them). By the way, write, do you add eggs to this salad?
Mayonnaise again. Carrot.
And beets. Top also mayonnaise.
If it seemed to you that there is a lot of mayonnaise - do not rush to tell me about it, watch the video at the beginning. There, in addition to the herring under a fur coat, there are 6 more salads, which were always on our New Year's table. You will love this video!
We usually cooked herring under a fur coat in advance. We put the salad in the refrigerator for several hours. But you can try right away. The salad turns out to be very juicy, although there is not very much mayonnaise in it.
In the video below, there is another version of herring under a fur coat (I serve in portions and add one more ingredient):
