What to cook for the new year recipes. Cooking festive dishes for the New Year's table

Menu for the New Year 2018, recipes with photos are new and interesting

Since the New Year is a holiday, first of all, a family one, they almost always celebrate it together with all relatives and close people. And every year, the hostess of the house where the celebration takes place has to develop a menu for the New Year and cook a huge number of dishes. In some families, the same thing is cooked year after year, and therefore, guests who have seen traditional salads and chicken and potatoes from the doorway immediately lose their festive mood. To prevent this from happening, every hostess should try to surprise all the guests with the variety of dishes and their taste. After all, you can eat all night only once a year!

Next Year of the Dog gives scope for your imagination, because the Dog eats almost everything. The only thing worth giving up is beans, as well as excessive consumption of garlic and alcohol, which the Yellow Dog definitely does not like.

How to Design a Holiday Menu for the New Year of the Dog 2018

Before looking for recipes, you need to remember the preferences of all family members. After all, someone does not eat fish, someone does not like olives and beets, and someone will have vegetarians at the table on New Year's Eve. Therefore, you need to think about all the guests at once.


An ideal option when there are different types of salads and snacks on the table, vegetable, meat, cheese plates, two hot main courses, a cake and light desserts. But if there is no way to create such diversity, you can arrange a vote, or ask guests to bring some dish from home. In some families, it is quite normal that, for example, a grandmother bakes a cake, an aunt is in charge of salads, and the hostess does everything else.
Also, when developing a menu, other points should be taken into account: it is better to determine in advance the amount that can be spent on a feast, and then subtract the money that will be used to buy drinks, fruits and sweets from there. Then it will become clear how much money is left for food. And already relying on this, you can decide what to cook and what to refuse.


Also, hostesses who are serious about the eastern calendar prepare something that not only guests, but also the symbol of the next year may like. For example, for the Dog, that is, for the hostess of 2018, you need to cook as many meat dishes as possible. It can be both salads with meat ingredients, and dishes in pots. The hostess of the next year will be pleased with baked ribs and any fish. This approach also helps to easily determine.
But if not a single idea comes to mind, and the issue with the menu has not yet been resolved, you can borrow the recipes below. They are tested not only by time, but also by experienced housewives and hungry guests.


Salads and appetizers

Appetizers and salads should be beautiful, because usually guests come when there are already plates with an aperitif on the table. It is also worth considering that the food served before the main courses should be light, but very tasty. Here's what you can cook:

Salad in the form of a muzzle of a Dog

chicken fillet - about 200 gr.

ham - 100 gr.

chicken egg - 3 pcs.

cheese - 150 g

carrots - 2 pcs.

onion - 1 pc.

mayonnaise - about 150 ml

For decoration:

olives - a few pieces

First you need to boil until cooked eggs, carrots "in uniform", chicken fillet. Finely chop the fillet and ham, fry the onion, grate the eggs, cheese and carrots. Form the dog's head on a dish observing the layers: fillet, fried onions, ham, cheese. Coat all layers with mayonnaise. Next, where the dog's ears lay out the carrots, where the muzzle put a hill of finely chopped ham and fill it with finely grated squirrels. Fill the forehead with yolks, make eyes and nose from olives.

Canned fish rolls

Canned fish is a salvation for those who have spent a lot on gifts. After all, you can cook salads and pies with them, but for the New Year's table you can do something special, for example, pita rolls. You can take any canned food - pink salmon, mackerel, and saury. Here is the list of ingredients and quantities:

  • one or two sheets of Armenian thin lavash
  • a can of fish
  • three eggs
  • hard cheese - about 100 gr.
  • mayonnaise
  • fresh dill greens

The cooking process couldn't be easier! First you need to boil the eggs, then hold them under cold water. While they are cooling, you can spread the pita bread and grease it on one side with a thin layer of mayonnaise. In this case, the edges of the cakes should remain unlubricated. After that, you need to peel the eggs and either grate them or chop them finely. Then mentally divide the sheet of pita bread into four parts and lay eggs on one of them. Then we open the canned food, transfer the fish to a flat plate, add a little juice from the can and soften everything with a fork. Now you can lay out the fish next to the eggs, while leaving room for two more ingredients.
After the fish, it is best to lay out the dill. The greens are pre-washed and dried on a towel or napkin. Then finely chop the dill and also carefully lay it on the future roll. It remains to grate the cheese on a fine or coarse grater and put on the rest of the sheet. The edges of the pita bread then need to be wrapped inward so that the filling does not spill out. The sheet is then rolled up into a roll. You need to twist well so that the roll is tight. After that, the roll must be wrapped in ordinary cling film and put in the refrigerator for three hours. Before the guests arrive, the snack must be taken out and cut into small pieces.


"Christmas snowmen"

If we talk about snacks that become a table decoration, then this, of course, is the New Year's Snowmen. They are made very easily, but they look spectacular. Adults love this appetizer for the combination of ingredients, and children for the unusual presentation. The simplest products are required for this dish:

  • 400 gr. delicious cheese
  • 6 chicken eggs
  • 150 gr. mayonnaise
  • 5 garlic cloves

First you need to boil the eggs, put them under cold water, and then peel and chop them: either with a knife or with a fine grater. Then you need to peel the garlic cloves and pass them through a press. After that, also on a grater with small holes, you need to grate the cheese. We put all the ingredients in one container, then mayonnaise is added and everything is mixed well until the mixture becomes homogeneous. Then from the resulting mass you need to make snowmen. To keep them well, we sculpt two balls each: a little more for the body, a little less for the head. Put the snowmen on a plate. You can make them hats, spouts and even scarves from boiled carrots, eyes and buttons - from pieces of olives or peppers, pens - from green sprigs. You can make different snowmen for all guests, the main thing is to catch inspiration. By the way, this appetizer is best served with snacks or bread. And before the start of the feast, snowmen can be put in the refrigerator so that they do not lose their shape.
Some housewives usually make snowmen from whole chicken and quail eggs, however, this time the symbol of the year may not like such an appetizer. Astrologers recommend cheating and hiding foods such as chicken or eggs in dishes so that the Rooster does not guess that they were generally used in the preparation of the New Year's table.


Jellied pike perch

This aspic can be safely called a special dish, because it is prepared without gelatin. And that doesn't make it worse, it's even better. After all, the filler turns out to be very tender. And the use of pike perch allows you to make a very tasty and rich broth, the guests will definitely be delighted! Here's what you need to prepare:

  • kilogram of zander
  • kilogram of some small fish
  • three eggs
  • two carrots
  • bulb
  • one and a half liters of water
  • spices
  • Bay leaf
  • salt, peppercorns
  • greenery

The hardest part of this recipe is dealing with the fish. In order to cook the broth, you will need: the head and tail of a pike perch, as well as small fish without gills and entrails. The pike perch carcass is set aside and cleaned of scales, and all of the above is put into a saucepan, poured with cold water and put on fire. When the water boils, you need to remove the foam that has appeared and make the fire weak. If you do not cook the broth over low heat, it will not be transparent. The broth must be boiled for two and a half hours, but after sixty minutes, peeled carrots and onions must be added to it. Also at this time, pepper is poured and a bay leaf is placed. When the vegetables are a little boiled, you can carefully put the pike perch fillet. It takes 20 minutes for the fish to cook. Then the fillet must be removed and set aside. While the broth is not yet fully cooked, you can boil the eggs, cool them and peel them.
Now you need to prepare containers for the dish. Eggs are laid out at the bottom, but not entirely, they need to be cut into circles. Then you need to distribute the boiled pike perch fillet, removed from the bones, also cut the carrots into circles and also add it to the rest of the ingredients.
It remains only to strain the broth and pour it over the products laid out in the containers. The jellied immediately needs to be removed in a cold place. It can be not only a refrigerator, but also a balcony. You need to pull out the dish just before serving, otherwise it will melt. You can also garnish with fresh herbs or lemon slices.

After the choice is made, be sure to write down on a piece of paper which recipes you have chosen, and on the back, make a list of products that you should definitely buy. This will help you not to forget anything when you go shopping, because on New Year's Eve there is such a hustle and bustle in stores that you can forget everything in the world. Therefore, you need to make a list so as not to run to the store on the evening of the 31st.

We have selected several options for delicious snacks, but it is not necessary to cook them all. Choose what you like best. In extreme cases, a good cut of meat will always help you out.

Of course, the first thing that guests see and what should be on the table for the new year 2019 is serving and cold snacks. Do not save on pleasant trifles and think over the color scheme of napkins in advance and make sure that the dishes from which they will eat are from one set or at least two, but by no means a team from different sets that are not similar to each other. As snacks, as a table decoration, all kinds of canapés on skewers are welcome, which can be made from almost any product that is suitable as a snack. You can also diversify the menu due to tartlets, in which you can put salad or pate.

We all drink on New Year's holidays, some a little, and some quite a lot. A drink is a must with a snack. It can be stuffed tartlets already loved by everyone or just chopped cucumber, sausage and cheese. And you can cook something really mysterious and new. For example, you can cook canape with shrimp. It's very original and delicious. And for those who like seafood, this will be the best dish on the festive table. There are many types of shrimp canapes. You can choose according to your taste.
For the first type of canape with shrimp, you will need:
- king prawns;
- pitted olives;
- lettuce leaves;
- cucumber.
Shrimps need to be thawed and boiled. Then clean the shrimp, to do this, remove the head and shell. Cut the cucumber and tear the lettuce leaves. Next, use your creativity. You can arrange the ingredients however you like. But here's an interesting option if you don't feel like fantasizing: first pierce the shrimp, then pierce the olive and the other end of the shrimp. Stick a piece of lettuce, to do this, bend it in several layers and complete the design with a cucumber.

Canape with cheese

For the second type you will need:
- shrimps;
- pitted olives;
- lemon;
-cheese.
First, boil the shrimp, peel them. We cut the cheese into cubes, in size, should not be smaller than a shrimp, but not very small either. Approx 1*1 cm. The lemon also needs to be cut into triangular slices. Follow. So that the slice is not very large, otherwise the appetizer will be too sour and this will spoil the whole taste. On a skewer we prick a shrimp in two dreams, then a lemon and an olive. The olive should be pricked across the long side. And then we string a piece of cheese.
There are many such options, you can arrange it so that the snack is sweet and sour, it will be very piquant and unusual. So, for example, a very interesting combination is cheese and kiwi. Just fantasize.

Snack in the form of Christmas trees

Cooking:

From a piece of 600 grams, two rolls are obtained. It is necessary to cut it into two parts, and cut each part almost to the end, leaving one cm. Alternately beat off both pieces, covering them with cling film. It is necessary to beat off carefully so that the meat turns out as thin as possible, but carefully.
Season the broken pieces with salt, pepper and seasoning for meat on both sides. Cut peppers and cucumbers lengthwise into thin slices, leeks diagonally into thin rings. Put a few slices of pepper, cucumber and 2-3 onion rings on the edge of the beaten meat. Roll up both pieces and tie with twine or thread.
Fry the rolls in a saucepan on all sides, then pour in brine or broth, add soy sauce and simmer under a lid for 30 minutes over low heat. During this time, the rolls must be turned over several times. Alternatively, fried rolls can be baked in the oven, pouring broth and soy sauce mixed with juices obtained from frying. Cover with foil and bake at 180 degrees for 40 minutes.
Put the finished rolls on a dish and remove the thread. The liquid left after stewing is used to make the sauce. To do this, it must be heated almost to a boil and add starch diluted in a tablespoon of water. Stir, remove from heat and pour into saucepan.
Cut the roll into portions and serve on a common dish, garnished with greens. The sauce is served in a gravy boat or poured over a sliced ​​​​roll.


The appetizer is prepared very quickly - only 15 minutes, and the dish turns out to be unusual in appearance and delicate in taste. For cooking, you will need the following products:
- pasta in the form of large shells;
- lettuce leaves;
- any cheese, preferably with blue mold;
- Cream;
- walnuts.
You need to start by boiling the shells in very well-salted water, then put them in a colander and pour over cold water. Put the walnuts on the grill, cook for about 3 minutes. After that, the nuts need to be cut with a knife, but not very finely. For the sauce, whisk together walnut oil, oil (olive) and wine vinegar. Salt and pepper everything.
Cheese for the filling needs to be crumbled, it is advisable to use a fork for this. Whip the cream until stiff, then stir in the cheese and cream. We put the resulting filling into shells and pour over the sauce.
To make the appetizer look beautiful, you need to put it on lettuce leaves, and sprinkle more nuts on top. Serve immediately, otherwise the taste will dull a little.
Attention! When choosing cheese, it must be borne in mind that in the end it should form a homogeneous mass with cream.

Pike stuffed


If there is stuffed fish on the table, it’s definitely a holiday in the house. Since ancient times, this dish has taken pride of place, both in the festive and New Year's menus. To cook stuffed pike, the first step is to clean it and remove the skin. To do this, we make cuts in a circle near the head, without touching the giblets. So you, simply by pulling on the head, will pull out all the giblets without suffering and without spoiling the skin of the pike. Peel off the skin gently with your fingers. Near the fins, you can help yourself with a knife, only so as not to damage the integrity of the skin. Separate the flesh of the fish from the bones and make minced meat out of it. Add minced meat to it (preferably fatty), its volume should be approximately the belly of the stuffed fish. Finely chop 1 large onion and saute in sunflower oil until golden brown. Also take a large carrot, peel, grate on a medium grater and lightly fry. Mix the minced meat, onion, carrot, loaf and season everything with salt and pepper to taste. Stuff the pike as well as the head after removing the gills from there. Sew the head to the body of the stuffed pike. Lubricate the fish with sour cream for a beautiful and tasty crust, then bake the pike in the oven at 180 degrees for about 2 hours. Put the finished fish on a dish next to the greens and sprinkle with mayonnaise on top when it has completely cooled down.

Snacks using salted red fish are very popular now. They are tasty, salty and tender. To prepare our appetizer you will need:
- fillet of slightly salted salmon;
- fresh cucumber;
- cream cheese;
- thin pita bread;
- greenery.
You can either buy salmon or cook it yourself. Most importantly, it should turn out lightly salted. Cut it into slices. Depending on the thickness of the slice, you will get a different amount of snack: the thinner, the more.
The cucumber should be cut into thin and long strips. If the skin is hard, it must be removed. Greens can be added or not - a matter of taste, the type of greens can also be chosen independently.
Let's get straight to cooking. We spread the pita bread in full width, grease it with cheese, much attention should be paid to the edges. Then you need to put pieces of salmon and cucumber into it, and then we turn the pita bread so that nothing spills. It turned out a long tube, which we cut into pieces with a sharp knife (a blunt one will simply break the pita bread and flatten the contents).
Greens can also be put inside the pita bread before laying out the fish and cucumber.


Balls with crab sticks - resemble snowballs and are perfect as a New Year's snack. For cooking you will need: a glass of boiled rice, two boiled eggs, 150 - 200 grams of crab sticks, mayonnaise, tomatoes and lettuce. Mix rice and grated eggs, salt and season with mayonnaise. Roll this mass into balls of the same size. Grate the crab sticks and roll each ball in this shavings. Arrange lettuce leaves on a platter. Wash tomatoes and cut into circles. Put the tomato slices on the green salad. Then put a ball on each tomato. Now the snack is ready.

The salads that will be on the New Year's table this evening should reflect the New Year's mood and are better if they are decorated accordingly. You can also lay out any of your favorite salads (yes, the same Olivier) in the form of a Christmas tree and sprinkle chopped herbs on top, thus you will please yourself and everyone else with an unusual serving of the usual salad. Well, if you have not yet decided which salad to cook, then read our recipes.

Salad "Citrus and shrimps"

Shrimps are wonderfully combined with citrus fruits, and in our case there will even be several types of them. So, we will need:
- boiled-frozen shrimps;

- orange;
- tangerine;
- salad;
- cherry tomatoes;
- Bulgarian pepper;
- hard cheese (preferably Parmesan).
Salad in time takes more time to prepare than the cooking process itself. It will take about 1.5 hours in total.
Shrimp should be thawed by the time of cooking. We fry them in oil, sprinkled with our favorite spices. We do this for a short time - a few minutes.
Arrange lettuce leaves on a flat dish. Peel and divide citrus fruits into slices, remove the film. The pulp of an orange should be cut with a knife, and the juice remaining on the skin should be squeezed into a container. We will still need it.
Put the slices on the salad. After that, we cut the tomatoes into circles, and the pepper into small cubes, and put them on top of our citrus fruits. And on top of all this we lay out ready-made shrimp.
Mix orange juice with olive oil, salt, pepper and pour over the salad. And we can decorate and add flavor with the help of grated cheese. Serve immediately after preparation.

New Year's salad

We make a salad in the form of a New Year's wreath. To do this, place a glass or jar in the center on a flat dish, around which our wreath will be. We take 2 large pieces: beets, carrots, potatoes and eggs. Boil food until cooked. We also prepare 200 grams of smoked chicken, a handful of walnuts and mayonnaise. We proceed to the assembly of the salad, where we grease each layer with mayonnaise. We cut the chicken meat into cubes and place the first layer on the dish. Next, potatoes grated on a coarse grater, followed by chicken eggs and beets. Sprinkle nuts on top and decorate the salad as in the photo or as New Year's inspiration tells you.

Salad with ham and pancakes

What's a New Year's table without salads? There are a lot of posts on the Internet that the New Year without Olivier is not the New Year. Is it really? Of course, we have a whole tradition of preparing this wonderful and easy-to-prepare salad. But everything comes with time. Olivier is no exception. If in your house this salad is no longer considered anything special, then you need to think about it. Maybe something newer? For example, salad with ham. Very tender and delicious salad is very easy to prepare. In addition, it is safe to say that ham in a salad is very tasty and inexpensive, since it is sometimes a pity to spend money on meat, but it can always be replaced with ham or sausage.
To make a salad with ham you will need:
- 200-300 grams of ham;
- 2 medium onions;
- pancakes that we will cook ourselves;
- greenery;
- mayonnaise.
For pancakes you need:
- 2 chicken eggs;
- 2 tablespoons starch (corn or potato);
- 2 tablespoons flour;
- spices or herbs;
- vegetable oil.
Let's start making pancakes. To do this, beat the eggs with salt with a whisk, then add starch and flour, add herbs and spices if desired. We leave the dough for 10-15 minutes, when the flour swells a little, fry the pancakes.
While the pancakes are cooling, cut all the ingredients. Onion cut into half rings. To give the salad softness, try to cut it as thin as possible. Choose salad onions, they are less bitter. After the onion is chopped, pour boiling water over it, drain the water and squeeze the onion with your hands.
Cut the ham and pancakes into strips, but not very thick. The simplest remains. Combine all the ingredients, salt, add ground pepper and season with mayonnaise.
Before serving salad, sprinkle greens on top. This salad is also called “The Riddle”, because guests immediately begin to ask with curiosity what is in this dish. If you really want to surprise all your guests, be sure to prepare an exquisite salad with ham for the festive table.

Salad with chicken, cheese and tomatoes

No less popular for the holidays is chicken salad with cheese and tomatoes. The very combination of these ingredients makes you wonder how tender and delicious it is. The recipe is based on one serving, so calculate how many products you need.
- chicken fillet 1;
- hard cheese 50-70 grams;
- 1 clove of garlic;
- 1 medium sized tomato;
- dill and green onions;
- mayonnaise;
-salt.
Boil the chicken, drain the water and cut into small cubes. Then you need to grate hard cheese on a coarse grater. Now add the cheese to the chicken. You need to chop green onions, dill, add to cheese and chicken. You don't need to scald the tomato. On the contrary, try to leave as much moisture on the board as possible, otherwise the salad will be too watery, we do not need extra moisture. Squeeze a clove of garlic there, you can also grate it on a fine grater. Do not forget to salt the salad and season with mayonnaise.
The salad is quite light and tasty. It's the most on the New Year's table.

The year of the Rooster is coming to an end and very soon the Dog will enter into its legal rights. She will become the “hostess” of 2018. Preparations for the New Year's Eve always begin in advance, because you need to think through every detail: choose a festive outfit, come up with congratulations, buy gifts and think over treats. Each hostess is “puzzling over” what to cook for the New Year 2018 and is looking for outstanding recipes with photos, so we decided to prepare an article that will help create an appetizing and original New Year’s menu.

The dog belongs to the active, cheerful and gluttonous animals. Therefore, it is better to meet the year of the dog in 2018 with a full festive table, then the next 365 days you will be lucky. Efforts must be made so that no one remains hungry, so that everyone present can taste their favorite dish.

Mandatory products on the table in the year of the yellow earth dog

  1. Beef, veal, lamb or rabbit should be included first when listing foods. It is recommended not to fry the meat, but to boil or bake it. In this form, the meat will be easier to digest, then everyone will feel light and active, which is what you need. But the choice, of course, is yours! :)
  2. Poultry meat can also be present in the festive dishes. You can use not only chicken, but also the meat of goose, turkey, duck and other types of birds.
  3. Fish, seafood and mushrooms can diversify meat abundance.
  4. 2018 is the year of the yellow dog, so look for meals that include vegetables, fruits, legumes, and grains that are brown or yellow. You can use potatoes, pumpkin, peppers, yellow tomatoes, corn, beets, pineapples and other ingredients.

How to please and appease a yellow dog?

The basis of New Year's dishes should be meat dishes. They can be anything, it all depends on your personal taste preferences. You can also treat with aspic, pork knuckle, boiled pork, grilled steaks, chops, meatballs, kebabs, jellied meat, baked duck, grilled chicken, pates, julienne and many others. Salads based on boiled meat can diversify the menu. Any meat cuts, which may include any sausage, balyk, ham, jamon, basturma, dried chicken, and so on, will also be appropriate. Each ingredient must be thinly sliced ​​so that a three-dimensional composition can be formed from the slices. Classic sandwiches with red caviar or salted red fish will also be useful. Pickled mushrooms, olives, etc. can complement the gastronomic variety.

The new 2018 will undoubtedly be remembered by the representatives of the strong half who love meat dishes. But for fragile girls there are many interesting recipes that will not affect the figure.

What should not be on the holiday table

The future hostess of the year will not appreciate fish dishes, in which there are a lot of small bones, so pike, carp and other river fish should be excluded from the festive menu. The animal will not like the “herring under a fur coat”, beloved by many. When preparing cold cuts, make sure that it does not contain horse sausage. It is known that dogs do not like to eat these animals. Admirers of Korean cuisine should give up exotic dishes and do not cook dishes from dog meat. According to Feng Shui experts, it is worth removing broken noodles from the menu, as it turns out that its length affects longevity. Do not tease the dog with fast food dishes (hot dogs, burgers).

It is not advisable to serve too carbonated drinks on the table - kvass, lemonade, beer. An earthen dog will not be delighted with strong drinks either.

New Year's menu for the New Year's holiday table 2018

So, as cold appetizers, you can serve Christmas balls, small sandwiches with boiled pork and cucumbers, meat rolls with cheese, eggs stuffed with red caviar, profiteroles with crab, mushroom or cheese filling, meat fingers with bacon or cheese, boiled pork and more.

French meat, pork rolls with pineapple, julienne with chicken, mushrooms and cheese, meat in Provence, rabbit baked with herbs, pork with berry sauce, marinated chicken breast, etc. can be served hot.

For the main one, you can cook chicken fricassee, baked duck, roast pork, beef in pots, baked salmon, baked squid with tomatoes, stewed lamb with vegetables, chicken tobacco, chicken with oranges or vegetables, and more.

Desserts for the holiday table choose to your taste. The yellow dog does not limit you in the choice of sweets. Therefore, you can “walk around” here 🙂 You can bake cookies and cakes on your own or order a small one decorated in accordance with the main symbol of the year. Don't forget to use jellies and creams to complement your desserts. Decorate finished products with fruits and nuts.

You can serve vegetables and fruits on the table in any quantity and any form. An earth dog willingly eats vegetables and will not refuse to eat fruits. So you can safely include any vegetable and fruit snacks in the menu. For a large company, you can prepare fruit salads. The ingredients, cut into large pieces and laid out in small transparent salad bowls for each guest individually, will look very stylish and beautiful.

When compiling the menu, it will not be superfluous to know that you cannot cook for the New Year 2018. Why not tease our cute dogs?

  • Korean cuisine dishes. Rumor has it that they use these animals in cooking.
  • All kinds of fast food.
  • An abundance of sweets.

The dog is more than indifferent to fish products. Therefore, it is worth limiting its preparation. If perishing fish, then baked entirely. This will be a sign of abundance. Do not forget that dogs do not approve of the smell of alcohol. So it's worth considering the wine list.

We must pay tribute to the symbol of the upcoming 2018. He doesn't really restrict us. So, inspiration to you when compiling the menu and a fun holiday!
