Puff Salad with Herring, Potatoes, Melted Cheese and Pickles

Salad with herring, potatoes, melted cheese, and pickles is a dish that will delight all home and guests at the festive table with its taste. Those who are not indifferent to herring under a fur coat will definitely appreciate such a salad. The salad turns out to be very satisfying!

Servings: 4

Ingredients

Lightly salted herring – 330 g
Potatoes – 320 g
Pickled cucumbers (or pickled) – 320 g
Processed cheese – 100 g
Green onions – 50 g
Eggs – 2 pcs.
Mayonnaise – 100 g
Canned green peas (for decoration, optional) – 50 g

Directions

Wash the potatoes and eggs, place in a saucepan and cover with cold water. Add some salt. Send over high heat and bring to a boil. Boil eggs for 10 minutes from the moment they boil. Cook the potatoes for 15-25 minutes. The cooking time depends on the variety and size of the potato. Remove the eggs from the saucepan, cover with cold water, and cool. Remove the potatoes from the broth and leave to cool.
Peel the cooled potatoes and grate on a coarse grater.
You will need a culinary ring to shape the salad. I used a homemade ring made from a plastic bottle with a diameter of 15 cm and a height of 7 cm. Place the ring on the plate. Place the grated potatoes in the first layer. Smooth with a spoon and tamp a little. Season with a little mayonnaise. If desired, you can add a little salt and pepper.
Peel the herring from the entrails. Rinse the fish well under running water and pat dry with a napkin. Please note that there is no black film inside, as it gives bitterness. Separate the fillet from the backbone. Try to remove all large bones. Cut the fillets into small cubes. You can also remove the skin from the fillet first.
Place the chopped herring on top of the potato layer. Tamp down a little.
Wash and pat dry the green onions. Chop finely.
Place the chopped onion over the herring pieces.
Grate the melted cheese on a fine grater.
Place the grated cheese on top of the green onions.
Blot pickled cucumbers with a marinade napkin. Grate the cucumbers on a fine grater. If the cucumbers are juicy, squeeze out excess juice.
Place the grated cucumbers on a layer of melted cheese. Tamp lightly and brush with mayonnaise.
Peel the eggs. Rub on a fine grater.
Place the grated eggs on top of the cucumber layer. Tamp down a little and brush with mayonnaise.
Carefully remove the ring and garnish the salad with canned green peas.

Enjoy your meal!
