How to make a salad Cone with almonds? Prepare the specified products. You need to take smoked chicken, in the absence of it you can replace it with boiled chicken. Pre-boil the potatoes in a uniform, boil the eggs until cooked and cool. Cheese can be taken from any, with a slightly pronounced taste. Mayonnaise for dressing salad, you can take a mixture of mayonnaise and sour cream. Almonds must be roasted. Prepare a festive dish to serve the salad on the table.

My potatoes are boiled in peel, you can take boiled without peel. Peel and grate the boiled potatoes on a coarse grater. Add somewhere 1 - 2 tbsp. mayonnaise, mix. If the potatoes have not previously salted, then at this step it should be salted. I will lay out the salad in the form of two cones, but you can put it in the form of one or three at once. Put the potatoes on a dish in the form of two ovals, imitating the shape of a cone.

I take spuds for the salad. It needs to be philated. Cut the finished flesh into small cubes, add a spoonful of mayonnaise, mix. Place the smoked spud in the second layer, adhering to the desired shape.

Cut salted or pickled cucumbers into small cubes, add a spoonful of mayonnaise and put in a third layer in the salad.

Peel the boiled eggs from the shell and rub on a coarse grater. Mix the eggs with the mayonnaise and place the next layer over the salad.

Grate the selected cheese on a grater. I grated it on a coarse grater and because of this it was hard to lay out almonds, so it is better to grate the cheese on medium or fine grater. Mix the grated cheese with mayonnaise (it should be added more here) and put in the next layer in the salad. Rinse the salad with mayonnaise so that no layers are visible.

Salad almonds should be roasted. If it is raw, then it should be fried in a dry pan. Put the nuts on the salad, slightly pouring into the top layer so that they hold on. You can lay it out by immersing the nut in full, or you can lay it out so that they stick out like scales on an open cone.

The finished salad should be cooled before serving. When serving, you need to wipe the dish with napkins so that there are no traces of the products. Decorate the cones, imitating needles, with sprigs of rosemary or dill, or all together.
