How to make Ryzhik salad with carrots and cheese classic? Prepare all the necessary ingredients according to the list. For this salad, choose fresh, juicy, bright orange, coarse size or two medium. Use processed cheese of high quality.

Wash the carrots well under running water. Peel with a vegetable peeler. If the carrot is young, it is not necessary to clean it, the main thing is to thoroughly wash it with a tough brush. I grated a carrot in Korean. You can grate on a coarse or medium-sized grater. This is not important.

Put the melted cheese in the freezer for half an hour in advance. Thanks to this, it will be better to rub. Grate it also on a coarse or medium-sized grater.

Peel the garlic clove. Rinse, dry with napkins. Rub on a fine grater or pass through the press. By the way, you can increase the amount of garlic to your liking.

Transfer the grated carrots, melted cheese, crushed garlic to a suitable container. Add a couple of tablespoons of mayonnaise. Mayonnaise is better to cook on its own, it will be healthier and tastier. You can replace it with sour cream or natural thick yogurt and the dish will be less high-calorie. Salt to taste. The amount of salt will depend on what you decide to season the salad. If sour cream or yogurt, more salt will be needed.

Mix the salad thoroughly with the dressing. Done.

Now get to the design of the salad. It can simply be put in a salad bowl or serving cremans and served. I used a culinary ring, so the dish will look neater and more elegant. Place a culinary ring on a plate, put a salad in it, flatten its surface with a spoon. Send the salad to the fridge for 1 hour. During this time, he will soak up well.

After an hour, remove the salad from the fridge. Carefully remove the cooking ring. Decorate at your discretion. For example, parsley, dill, lettuce leaves. Ryzhik salad is self-sufficient and does not need to be supplemented. But if you want a heartier option. Serve it with boiled pasta, mashed potatoes. It will be great as an accompaniment to meat.
