How to make a salad with ham, cucumbers, cheese and egg? Prepare all the necessary ingredients. I had a large greenhouse smooth cucumber, cut off more than half by 150 grams from it. Wash the cucumber and cut into cubes. First I cut into three barrels, then each barrel into straws and straws into cubes.

Wash the eggs in water with soda, as there may be harmful bacteria on their surface. Boil them hard for 10 minutes. Then cool with cold water. Peel and dice the cucumber as well. For this, I always use a special round strainer with square divisions, it turns out faster, but you can just cut them with a knife. It is better to take eggs at home with a pronounced orange yolk - they taste better and look brighter in a salad.

Remove the film from the ham and cut it into strips. I cut into medium thickness straws - you can thicker or thinner at your discretion.

Grate the hard cheese over a coarse grater. Cheese can be taken by anyone, the main thing is that it is natural and fresh, without vegetable fats.

Take a bowl of the right size, mix all the prepared foods in it: ham, cheese, eggs and cucumber. If you plan not to serve the salad immediately, then do not add the cucumber yet, but only just before serving, otherwise it will drain and the salad will lose its taste and become watery. In addition, I used dry seasoning & quot; garlic pepper & quot;. Alternatively, you can sprinkle the dish with black ground pepper and dried garlic to taste.

Season the delicate salad with fresh cucumber, ham, egg and cheese mayonnaise. I have 67% fat mayonnaise, you can take less fat or use homemade, which is best. Gently mix everything. Mayonnaise is also better added before serving itself, since you do not need to additionally soak in the salad. Enjoy your meal!
