Good afternoon. We continue to get acquainted with delicious snacks and today an interesting version of the "Man's Caprice" salad is on the agenda. It prepares very simply, but conquers everyone !! It can be done in layers or mixed. And it is best served on lettuce leaves or with fresh herbs.
Why the dish got this name, I do not know, but I think this is due to the fact that the main products in the salad are meat and onions. And, apparently, men are delighted with such a meal.
And even if you boil the beef in advance, then the time spent on cooking will take a minimum!
I want to start with the classics of the genre, because if you have never tried this insanely tasty appetizer, then it is better to try the original version of the dish without any other products. And only then, it will be possible to experiment.
The salad turns out to be very satisfying and spicy, it is liked by both men and women. The main product in it is beef meat, so it is better to take it fresh and natural. Of course, you can use both chicken and ham for variety. But I still recommend doing it from beef.
Ingredients:
Cooking method:
1. So, we take fresh meat, if you have frozen, then defrost it in advance in a natural way. Rinse and cook in salted water for about an hour. Be sure to remove the foam during the boil. After cooking, cool and cut the pulp into strips or take it apart with your hands.
To determine whether the beef is ready or not, pierce the thickest part of the meat, if colorless juice appears, then the meat is ready.
2. Now let's start pickling onions. To do this, peel it and cut it into half rings. Next, put in a deep bowl and pour in the vinegar, add 2 tbsp. spoons of water.
If you don't have vinegar, add lemon juice.
3. Boil eggs hard-boiled, cool. Peel and grate or chop with a fork.
4. Rub the cheese on a medium grater.
5. Drain all the liquid from the finished onion and spread it in a thin layer on a flat dish. Lubricate with mayonnaise.
6. Now put the beef and coat with mayonnaise too.
8. Well, the final layer of cheese. You can also decorate the dish with herbs. Be sure to take the time to soak your snack.
And this option differs from the previous one in that we will also add carrots. It will definitely not be superfluous, but it will diversify and make the dish much brighter.

8. On top, carefully sprinkle everything with chopped yolks, soak with mayonnaise, decorate with grains of red caviar. Let it soak and serve it to the table. Bon Appetit!!
If you go far into history, then more often our food was made from mushrooms, it was only later that they decided to use meat. And nowadays they add both beef and mushrooms at the same time. It turns out no less tasty, try it !!
In fact, everything in this dish is very simple, the main thing is to pickle the onion correctly, since the taste of meat depends on it, and, accordingly, the taste of the entire appetizer.

Although this salad is called “Man's whim, it must have been invented by some woman to please her man. It is understood that sufficient nutritious foods must be present in it.
