The eve of large family holidays, gathering at the common table of all relatives, turns into a complete nightmare for the host hostess. Still would! After all, a strict mother-in-law, an attentive sister-in-law, an almost ideal (again from the point of view of the same mother-in-law) friend of the husband's children's days, experienced aunts, wise grandmothers will come. No, the mistress is glad to see everyone. I just really want not to lose face, but to surprise, boast, be a sort of unsurpassed chef, who can surprise fastidious ladies. The husband is engaged in the morning cleaning, and the poor woman feverishly leafs through the cookbook, looking for unique recipes on the Internet. Stop! Why reinvent the wheel? After all, you can make super salads from ordinary, simple ingredients, send the meat to a skewer (from the kebab always and everyone is delighted), get delicious, homemade compote from the bins - and the guests will surely be satisfied. The recipe for a salad with mushrooms and potatoes can be beaten in various ways: bird nests, puff pyramids, delicious croquettes. Soul calmed down, the case for small - choose the desired recipe.
Salads with mushrooms were always in high esteem of the Russian people, and the gifts of the forest more than once rescued in difficult times. This was especially noticeable in the fasting days, when the only food eaten was borovichki, honey agaric, white mushrooms, chanterelles. Nature has tried its best: these creatures included a lot of useful minerals, trace elements, vitamins. They help get rid of cholesterol, help those with intestinal problems, normalize sugar levels. In short, this is a unique creation of nature. The second "friend" is potatoes. Although he appeared in Russia rather late, he managed to win love, respect, honor of ordinary people. Today, every family does not present its menu without fried potatoes or mashed potatoes, and pies with potato filling can be safely placed on the top of the culinary pedestal. Salad with mushrooms and potatoes combined two favorite Russian products. The result is a tasty dish that everyone should try.
Unfortunately, the favorite dish of the grouse dish “The Grouse's Nest” does not always work. What is the reason? In the right preparation, serving? Let's try to tell your cooking option:
Little tips. Mushrooms can lay out the base of the salad, because some birds nest in the grass thickets. For the nest itself, you can use ready-made french fries, fried straws or chips, but they are no match for the home ingredient. If there are no white gifts of the forest, you can use mushrooms, oyster mushrooms, chanterelles. The main condition: the mushrooms must be fried, another reservation - full evaporation of the liquid, the salad with potatoes must be dryish.
An old cartoon about a girl Alice, who got into wonderland, was loved by many. Surely everyone remembers the phrase of the red queen about the game of croquet. The poor hedgehogs immediately became balls for the game, and the unfortunate pink flamingos became sticks. Only now in the form of balls will be potatoes with mushrooms. Cooking fabulous dishes will be as follows:
The process itself is completed, sprinkle with cheese ready "sports equipment", serve on the table. The second version of the same dish will be slightly different. The formation of the balls will be the same, but the serve will be hot with the sauce. In the pan fry the ladle of sifted flour. Carefully follow the color. Constantly stirring the ingredient, achieve a delicate cream color. Pour in a thin stream a glass of heavy cream, mix thoroughly, add nutmeg, cumin, salt, pepper, dried dill. Simmer until mixture becomes thick. Put the prepared balls in a skillet, pour the sauce over them, cheese them on top, send them to the oven for a few minutes. Keeping in the oven for a long time may cause the balls to boil over. For the powder, it is best to choose a soft variety of mozzarella cheese, it instantly dissolves, forming an appetizing crust. It is necessary to tinker with potatoes: the boiled version will not work here. Bake the oven will give a crumbly product, in addition, improve the taste of potatoes.
