Salad exprom "Lazy Ivo": named in honor of his beloved husband, who loves to weave herring

With respect to recipes, all people can be divided into two camps. Some weigh each ingredient on an electronic scale, try to translate spoons and glasses into grams and milliliters (more precisely) and pester the author with a request to clarify the amount of dill in the salad. The second boldly mix everything that is in the refrigerator, guided mainly by mood and intuition. The latter includes the husband of my friend Ivo. Maybe his Fantasia salad isn’t as exquisite as Anna Matvey’s Caesar, but your guests won’t say they ate the same one last week.



Fantasia Salad Ingredients

• 4 herring fillets
• 4 potatoes
• 1 beet
• 3 pickles
• 1 can of canned peas
• salt
• vegetable-oil

Preparation

1. Boil or bake vegetables for salad. In the second case, in order, like thrifty Ivo, not to waste electricity, you can also prepare a side dish for dinner from baked potatoes.
   
   
   
2. Cut small cucumbers and beets and larger potato cubes.
3. Cut herring fillets in small cubes.
   
   
   
4. Better cut the onions with feathers. Add salt, sugar, vinegar to it. Stir and leave for 15-20 minutes. Pickled onions will acquire a savory sweet and sour taste and a pleasant crunch, and the salad will turn out to be more delicious and refined. At the same time, the sharp onion taste will soften.
   
   
   
5. Put peas, onions and herring in the salad bowl.
   
   
   
6. Add beets, potatoes and cucumbers.
   
   
   
7. Stir everything, salt it and fill it with vegetable oil.
8. Bon appetit!

Potatoes and beets can be boiled, or you can bake. In one of our recipes "Fools" we offered this method of cooking. The fact is that baked vegetables do not absorb water at all, so they get a more saturated taste. They keep their shape better and do not fall apart in a salad.
