We mostly associate salads with light dishes that serve only as an addition to the main ones.
However, with the right recipe, you can make a real quality snack.
For example, it is worth paying attention to the spectacular salad with beef, says chef Yulia Arkhipova , an expert on culinary issues for the online publication BelNovosti.
- a piece of meat (about 300 grams);
- three medium-sized pickles;
- one large onion;
- 2-3 tablespoons of refined oil;
- spices (bay leaf, peppercorns);
- a little cilantro and coriander;
- two cloves of garlic;
- salt.
It is best to choose pork or beef for this recipe. The piece of meat should be cooked whole, as this will preserve the rich taste.
We bring it to full readiness in salted water. Then we wait for it to cool.
Meanwhile, heat a frying pan and fry the garlic (whole if desired) with bay leaf and peppercorns in oil.
Chop the meat and cucumbers into strips. Chop the onion too and pour hot water over it.
Place meat, cucumbers and onions in a salad bowl. Drizzle with spiced oil. Make sure that the spices do not get into the salad.
Add some coriander and cilantro, salt and mix.
The salad should sit in the refrigerator for a while so that the flavor becomes richer and brighter.
