A filling of tender feta cheese with an unusual lemon tint and a most useful avocado - in a word, a win-win option. And, mind you, no mayonnaise!

RECIPE FOR BEET TREES

What do you need:
(for 6 servings)
6 small beets
150 g soft cheese
1 tsp lemon peel
2 garlic cloves
1 avocado
1 tsp thick sour cream
1 tsp lemon juice
salt, freshly ground pepper - to taste
greenery - for decoration

3. Remove the avocado pulp with a spoon, add sour cream, ground pepper and knead thoroughly with a fork.

If you bought a hard avocado, put it on a warm radiator overnight with a napkin. By morning, the fruit will become softer.

4. Put a little stuffing on each beetroot circle, taking the widest one as a basis, so that the Christmas trees are stable.

5. Fasten the resulting Christmas tree with a skewer. The photo shows the process itself, but the skewer must be shortened in advance.

6. Also, the cream for the filling can be deposited using a pastry bag.

Rice salad with liver

This recipe is for those who absolutely cannot imagine their holiday feast without all kinds of layered salads with mayonnaise. But after all, this is the New Year, which means that any desires should be fulfilled immediately! If you cook with mayonnaise, then only with homemade. And serving salad in portions will prevent you from eating too much.

RICE SALAD WITH LIVER RECIPE

What do you need:
(for 5-6 servings)
1 st. parboiled rice
500 g beef liver (for a more delicate taste, beef liver can be replaced with veal or chicken)
4 boiled eggs
200 g hard cheese
200 g canned corn
flour - for breading

Homemade mayonnaise:
3 yolks
150 ml vegetable oil
30 ml lemon juice (1/4 lemon)
1 tsp Russian mustard
1 tsp Sahara
a pinch of salt

How to make Rice Liver Salad:

1. There are several secrets in cooking the liver that will help make it soft and juicy.

Liver always choose fresh, not frozen.

Pour boiling water over the liver and immediately lower it into cold water. Remove the outer film with a knife, soak in milk for 1 hour. Cut the liver into pieces 1 cm thick, do not salt, roll in flour.

2. Heat vegetable oil in a frying pan, put the pieces of liver, fry for about 30 seconds and turn over. Then fry the liver again for about 1.5-2 minutes on each side.

It is important that the oil is hot. In this case, a crust immediately forms on the liver, which keeps all the juice inside. The liver is cooked over medium heat until, when pierced, the juice becomes not red, but transparent.

3. Put the finished liver on a paper towel and blot with a napkin to absorb excess oil.

4. Grate the cooled liver on a fine grater.

5. Simultaneously with the preparation of the liver, boil the rice until cooked and rinse in cold water.

6. Drain liquid from corn.

7. Divide the eggs into protein and yolk, grate separately on a fine grater.

8. Grate the cheese on a fine grater.

9. For mayonnaise, put the yolks in a bowl, add salt, sugar and mustard. Whisk vigorously for 1 minute.

10. Add lemon juice to beaten yolks and beat lightly.

11. Continuing to beat the egg-lemon mixture, add vegetable oil in a thin stream and beat the mixture to the consistency you need.

In traditional homemade mayonnaise, lemon juice is usually added towards the end of cooking, resulting in a thicker, smoother texture. If you first introduce the juice, the mayonnaise is lush and airy. It is especially good to keep such a sauce in the cold for at least 1-2 hours.

12. Lay out the salad in layers: beef liver, rice, corn, cheese, egg white and yolk. Spread liver, rice and cheese lightly with mayonnaise.

Leave in the refrigerator for 2-3 hours, and before serving, decorate with herbs.

Wonderful selection of salad recipes for the New Year! The photos are very beautiful! For myself, I chose two salads and a decoration in the form of a Rooster. Thanks for the delicious recipes!

Without delicious salads, it is difficult to imagine a traditional feast, and even more so the New Year. The beautiful design of dishes pleases the eye, stimulates the appetite and generally creates a special festive mood. To surprise guests, to bring aesthetic pleasure to themselves and their loved ones, housewives come up with and look for a variety of ways to decorate salads on the net - simple and complex. Find out how to decorate salads for the New Year 2018.

Salads with dressing and slice ornaments

One of the easiest ways to decorate salads is to sprinkle. What could be easier than sprinkling a ready-made salad with one of the ingredients, grated on a fine grater. For sprinkling use grated:

• eggs, both white and yolk;
• cucumbers;
• boiled carrots;
• beets;
• sausage.

The topping can be used in its pure form or mixed with mayonnaise.

In addition to grated ingredients, finely chopped greens are used, as well as small products, such as peas, corn, red and black caviar, and pomegranate seeds. Fantasizing and using ingredients of different colors, they create drawings and ornaments.

Video: decorating a herring under a fur coat

If you set out to do something even more original, then an interesting effect is obtained by combining sprinkles and thinly sliced ​​\u200b\u200bpieces of vegetables and fruits. Often they make a background of sprinkles, and put circles of cucumbers, rings of olives on top, cover the salad with thin slices of red fish. Look at the photo, how to make callas from cheese squares, put pineapple from mushrooms, and form a starfish from lettuce and red fish.

with mayonnaise

An additional decorative effect is created using mayonnaise. Since most salads are already made with mayonnaise, some do not use this option, trying not to overdo it with the sauce. However, subtle patterns look very attractive and appetizing.

If you buy mayonnaise in a tube, then you can draw just like that. But if you need really thin lines, you need to put the mayonnaise in a pastry bag or in a regular plastic bag and draw like a cream on a cake. Of course, the combination with other decoration options does not hurt the appearance of the salad at all.

Puff salads

There is nothing complicated in the technique of puff salads. However, alternately laid out layers of green cucumbers, orange carrots, red fish, yellow corn make the salad truly elegant. Use transparent bowls, vases, cocotte makers for layered salads, then they will not need additional decoration. But on the other hand, if there is a desire, why not decorate them from above using already known methods?

Animals

Salads decorated in the form of animals are relevant if you want to attract the attention of children to food. In addition, in the New Year, a bullfinch laid out of a salad, a dog (after all, 2018 is the year of the Dog), a hare - all this will be in the theme of the holiday. Those who miss the summer are advised to take the opportunity and enjoy the summer landscapes, the view of multi-colored butterflies, bees, ladybugs.

Note! Many decorations, including animals, are cut from thin slices of vegetables using cookie cutters.

Ideas for decorating salads in the form of birds, animals, insects, see below.

new year design

The most advantageous on the New Year's table will look like salads decorated in the New Year's style: in the form of bells, Santa Claus, snowman, Snow Maiden, Christmas trees, chimes, cones.

How to make such beauty? Also, as already described. Lay out the salad, give the mass the desired shape, sprinkle, decorate, grease with mayonnaise. Look at the photo, everything is clear here.

Carving

The technique of decorating dishes has been elevated to the rank of a special art. One of the well-known techniques is carving. This is the art of creating figures and decorative curls from vegetables and fruits, which later serve to decorate salads, main courses or as an independent decor. There are so many options for jewelry that it is simply not possible to imagine everything, but you can learn how to make basic elements.

Carrot cones

Cones are immediately associated with Christmas trees and the New Year. Let's decorate salads with carrot cones, and make fir branches from dill.

	You will need a sharp, narrow knife to cut the bump. It is necessary to give the carrots the shape of a cone.
	If there is, it is convenient to cut with carving knives, but they are optional.
	Cut the petals in a circle with a knife, trying to fit the whole number of petals, and under the petals cut the flesh a little. Continue row by row.
	When you reach the end, sharpen the tip of the carrot.
	You get these bumps. Moreover, when using different tools, they will be slightly different.

Pancake and beetroot roses

Pancakes are not a very common product for carving, but this is where the beauty of this decoration is manifested. It's hard to tell right away what it's made of.

	Grate boiled beets and mix with mayonnaise.
	Distribute the beetroot over the pancake.
	Roll up and cut into pieces about 5 cm.
	From the side of the cut, from one edge, you need to make several small cuts in the form of petals.
	Arrange the pancakes as shown in the photo, and close the gaps with parsley leaves.

roses from tomato

How real roses are made from the skin of a tomato. Even special practice for cutting is not required.

	Take any tomato with a nice, even, intact skin. Cut off the top of the hat, but do not cut it off completely.
	Continue to cut the skin in a spiral, being careful not to accidentally cut.
	Then unroll the spiral on the cutting board. And roll up into a roll, starting from the tip, towards the "hat".
	Decorate the salad with the resulting roses. You can make several and collect a "bouquet". You can make one large and place it in the center.

In the same way, a rose is made from an apple.

cucumber leaf

Cucumbers are often used in carving. They have several valuable properties: they are dense, so it is convenient to cut them out, their skin and pulp are of different colors, due to which a decorative effect is achieved. Try cutting cucumber leaves. One cucumber will produce at least two leaves.

	First, cut a piece of cucumber, as shown in the photo.
	Cut the flesh from the inside, but not too close to the peel.
	Give the cucumber a leaf shape. Cut off more pulp from the pointed edge.
	In the center along the sheet, make two cuts converging to the tip.
	From the sides, cut perpendicular cuts to the first two and remove these fragments.
	Cut through holes in the pulp in the form of leaflets.
	If you did everything right, you get such a cucumber leaf.

Bulb water lily

To carve a water lily, you will need a purple bulb, such a flower will not need to be dyed to give color.

	Take an onion and peel it off.
	Make zigzag cuts in the middle, moving in a circle.
	Separate the two halves.
	Disassemble the half into separate parts and assemble again so that the cloves do not match.
	One bulb produces two water lilies.

banana dog

Although a banana is not very suitable for decorating a savory salad, it is worth making a dog out of a banana, because the year of the Dog is coming. And from this fruit a charming dachshund is obtained.

	Freehand draw on paper a template in the form of a banana with legs. Attach to a banana and circle the outline with a sharp knife, cutting through the peel.
	Bend the legs.
	In addition to the template with legs, you will need a template with ears, draw it by hand too.
	Cut only the ears and bottom according to the template.
	Between the ears, make such an arcuate incision.
	Cut the banana pulp and discard. Bend down the loose peel that has formed between the ears from above.
	Make indentations for the eyes with a knife and insert black peppercorns.
	Insert a pair of toothpicks into the base of the head.
	Attach the "head" to the "torso".

Spirals

When you see ready-made vegetable spirals, it seems that making them at home is either impossible or expensive tools are needed. But everything, as it turns out, is much simpler.

	All you need is a cucumber, a slicer and a sharp knife. Although you can do without a slicer.
	First of all, cut the cucumber into thin slices. Then diagonally cut off the edges on both sides.
	Make several parallel cuts along.
	Twist a piece of cucumber with a pencil.
	Carefully remove the spiral and decorate the salad.

radish flower

You have already seen how to make roses from pancakes and beets, tomatoes, but there is another way to make a carving flower. Let's try to cut it out of a radish, or rather, not even cut it out, but fold it from pieces.

Swan their apple

This is an original, fairly easy way to decorate a salad or fruit cuts. Carefully repeat all the steps, according to the master class.

	Cut the apple into two halves with a diagonal cut.
	Take the part with the sepals. Remove bones.
	Lay as shown in the photo. Place a knife on top and bottom - they will serve as limiters.
	With another knife, make an incision slightly to the right of the center.
	Then cut the apple on the side.
	Then repeat the steps on the left side of the apple.
	Lay the cut section again between the two knives. Stepping back from the edge, make cuts on the top and side.
	You will get several of these pieces.
	Lay them out.
	Put the "wings" in the main half of the apple on the sides. Cut out a piece of apple in the center.
	Take the other half of the apple that we haven't used yet.

	Now cut out the part that is covered with a knife in the photo.
	And trim off the edge.
	Press the seed into the pulp. Give the piece a more rounded shape.

bulbous dahlia

At first glance, it’s hard to believe that a dahlia is made from an onion with your own hands in just 8 cuts. She looks so beautiful and sophisticated.

	Take a sharp and thin knife.
	We do not cut anything from the side of the root, on the other hand we make an even cut.
	Take the bulb in your hand or put it on the board. Cut the onion in the middle, but not completely. We do not cut about 1 cm.
	Perpendicular to the first incision, make a second incision. Now cut each piece in half.
	And again in half: we cut two parts at once or each separately.
	Take a bowl of water and put the onion in the water for a couple of hours.
	After two hours, remove the bulb, it will turn into a chrysanthemum.
	If you want to make a red chrysanthemum, dip the bulb in beetroot juice and let it sit for a while. The longer you keep the onion in the juice, the more intense it will be colored.
	Beautiful and impressive decoration.
