How to make Mimosa fish salad with carrots and cheese? It is very simple and even a teenager can cope with lettuce. First, prepare all the necessary ingredients on the list. In addition to these products, you can include onions in the composition, which must be chopped, pre-marinated in apple cider vinegar to beat off the mustard and then rinsed. Add onions or not, decide for yourself. It tastes good to me without it.

Remove the fish from the can, shake off the juice, remove the bones and ridge if there is and mash with a fork. Fish should be 250 g pure, without liquid, so you may need 2 cans of canned food. You can take any canned food. More often it is pink salmon or saira, but tuna, sardine, etc. , will also work.

Boil the carrots in the skin until tender, cool, peel and grate. The main secret of this salad is that the ingredients are grated on a fine grater. So the salad turns out with an airy delicate texture. How to cook carrots? Wash it and fold it into a pan of cold water. Cook the carrots after boiling over a low heat for 20-25 minutes, depending on the size. Check your readiness with a sharp knife - it should easily pierce it.

Grate the cheese on a fine grater as well. Any cheese for this dish is suitable - Russian, Gouda and even non-brine mozzarella for pizza. The main thing is that it is tasty, high-quality, without milk fat substitutes.

Hard-boiled eggs, peel. Divide into squirrels and yolks and rub them separately on a fine grater. You can, of course, immediately rub all the ingredients into a culinary ring, forming a salad on the go. This is how you like it more. I prefer to prepare all the products first, and then form a salad.

You can just layer all the ingredients in a salad bowl, but I prefer to make a salad in a beautiful cooking ring so that all the layers are visible. Also, for greater elegance, she divided some layers into two parts. Put half the canned fish in the first layer and pour over the mayonnaise.

Then spread out half the grated carrots and also pour over the mayonnaise. If you want to add pickled onions, you can put them on carrots.

Next, a layer of all grated proteins with mayonnaise.

Top with half the grated cheese and pour over the mayonnaise.

Then the second part of canned food.

Then the remaining grated carrots.

And the remaining cheese. On each layer, make a mesh of mayonnaise.

Well, the last layer is all grated yolks. Place the salad for 1 hour in the fridge for soaking. If placed for longer than an hour, tighten the shape with cling film to prevent the yolks from curling.

Remove the cooking ring before serving. Decorate the salad as desired. Enjoy your meal!
