Cut off the crusts from the bread and send it to the oven preheated to 180 degrees to dry. This will take 5 - 7 minutes.

Cut herring and onion into small pieces. Grate carrots and processed cheese on a coarse grater. Put everything in a blender, pepper and mix well. Don't have a blender? Use a meat grinder, just insert a fine mesh. Is the mousse dry? It depends on the herring. Add a tablespoon of mayonnaise or vegetable oil and mix well.

If you know how to bake pancakes, you can make them according to your own recipe. And for the rest, I will continue. If you have a blender, put all the ingredients in a bowl and mix thoroughly. If not, use a whisk or fork. First mix the eggs, then add milk and all other products except flour, mix well. Then add a little flour, mixing the dough thoroughly so that no lumps form.

Be sure to heat the pan well and grease it with oil.

I think that for the holiday it is better to bake intricate pancakes in the form of snowflakes. This is done quite simply. Pour the bulk of the pancake into the middle of the pan, and, turning it slightly, let the dough spread a little.

Then you scoop some dough into a spoon and draw patterns around. You can collect the test in a small plastic bottle and draw from it. This is somewhat more convenient, but the test is spent more.

When all the pancakes are ready, cover them with a plate or cling film to make them softer.

For now, let's get on with the filling. Cut salmon into small squares. Cheese grate on a fine grater. Finely chop the pickles too. Pepper, add mayonnaise and mix everything.

Divide the onion into feathers and steam with boiling water to make them more elastic.

In the middle of each pancake, put a tablespoon of the filling, form a bag and carefully tie with onion feathers. During this procedure, it is better to involve children or a husband, let them also take part in the preparations for the holiday.

These bags are served cold to the table, but if you are making them on the eve of the holiday, it is better to warm them up in the microwave for a few seconds so that the pancakes are not harsh.

We do the same with carrots, only now we smear them on beets. The third layer - potatoes with mayonnaise, is smeared on carrots, respectively. Don't forget to salt it. Next, put the onion, if you pickled it, then you need to let it drain so that it is not too wet. And the last layer is herring. It is better to lay it not over the entire surface of the roll, but with a long log in the middle. We tamp all layers in the same way with the help of cling film.

In a few weeks, a list of dishes for the New Year's table has already been compiled and a list of products necessary for this has been formed. That is, everything that was bought up and prepared for weeks is planned to be eaten on New Year's Eve. Ready meals are stored for a short time, only a few days, then they become hazardous to health. Therefore, in order not to overdo it and then not throw away food, it is necessary to take into account how much and what needs to be cooked, that is, a New Year's menu is compiled. We offer recipes for the festive table 2019 of all types of main and additional dishes that do not require excessive cash costs and long preparation.

Your task is to select a festive, and at the same time, a dietary menu for a child, taking into account his age and taste.

• From meat it is better to give preference to poultry: chicken, quail. Goose and turkey are considered more “heavy”.
• If a crispy fried crust has formed on the meat during baking, then it is better not to give it to the child. Chicken breast (white meat) is considered the most useful and dietary.
• The minimum number of spicy and fatty dishes, as well as salads with sauces, mayonnaise.

It will suffice:

• Mashed potatoes / pasta + a piece of chicken / quail.
• Salad without mayonnaise (or with a small amount) + cheese sandwich.
• Dessert (piece of cake, cookies, waffles or chocolate).

A festive table for two does not require a large amount of products. Therefore, you can experiment with cooking a small amount of exotic dishes.

Dishes of the New Year's table

We offer simple recipes for New Year's dishes that do not require you to have special culinary skills and the presence of special tools and tools in the kitchen. Agree, it’s a shame to spend time (it’s not enough on New Year’s Eve), finances, and in return to get something completely different from what is in the photo.

Traditionally, at the festive feast there are: main courses, salads, appetizers, desserts. There are more than a dozen cooking options for even one dish. Therefore, we offer one easy, inexpensive holiday recipe for each menu item.

poultry meat

The easiest and least expensive option would be to cook the chicken with salt. For this you will need:

• Chicken.
• 1 kg coarse salt.
• Medium-sized apple (3 pcs.).
• Lemon.
• Spices (to taste).

1. Pour enough salt on a baking sheet so that the layer is 2-3 cm thick.
2. Rinse the chicken and put apples inside (how many will fit). Sew up the edges with thread so that the apples do not fall out.
3. Lay the chicken on its back on the salt layer. Pour over lemon juice, sprinkle with spices, salt.
4. Place in preheated oven at 250-300℃.

On average, the cooking time is 1.5-2 hours.

Transfer the finished chicken to a beautiful dish (if the edges of the carcass were sewn together, remove the threads). You can decorate the chicken with finely chopped dill or parsley, lettuce, lemon slices. Cherry tomatoes, cucumber slices are placed around the carcass.

Baked fish

You will need:

The finished fish is laid out on a lettuce leaf. Garnish with: green leaves (parsley, dill), lemon slices, and chopped green onions.

Festive garnish

For the New Year 2019, the main hot dish will be a side dish. Most housewives cook potatoes, but you can cook rice. You will need:

• Round white rice 0.5 kg.
• Bulbs of medium size 3-4 pcs.
• Spices (cinnamon, a mixture of spices for pilaf).
• Kernels of walnuts.
• Vegetable oil.

1. Rinse and soak the rice in water (30 minutes).
2. Place the finely chopped onion in a bowl. Add sunflower oil and fry the onion until dark brown.
3. For 1 st. rice needs 1.5 tbsp. water. Add the right amount of water to the pot with onions and wait until it boils. Onions should boil for 15-20 minutes. During this time, it becomes soft, and the water becomes brown. Stir the onion with a large spoon and rub it against the sides of the pan.
4. We drain the water in which the rice was soaked and pour it into boiling “onion” water.
5. Add spices, salt. Close the lid and leave on low heat. We are waiting for the rice to cook (and absorb all the water). After that, mix and close the lid tightly. Cooking time 8-10 min.
6. Separately, fry the walnut kernels in a frying pan. Fry in vegetable oil over low heat.

It is advisable to decorate ready-made rice with nuts before serving. “Dark Rice” with nuts is perfect for fish.

Ingredients:

• Parsley 1 bunch.
• Tomato 2-3 pcs.
• Lettuce leaf.
• Sweet pepper 1 pc.
• Onion 1 pc.
• Boiled beets 2 pcs.
• Raw carrots 1 pc.

New Year's snack "Spark"

To prepare it you need:

• Processed cheese (2 pcs.).
• Boiled eggs (4 pcs.).
• A couple of cloves of garlic.
• Mayonnaise.

1. Grate cheese on a coarse grater.
2. Separately crush boiled eggs and mix with processed cheese.
3. Squeeze the garlic into the resulting mixture through the garlic press.
4. Salt and add mayonnaise.

It is desirable to spread the appetizer on black bread.

New Year's desserts

As a dessert, they serve: jelly, waffles, chocolates, tubes with condensed milk or cream, cake, cupcake. Sweets can be bought from stores, but it is better and safer to cook them yourself.

The decoration of the festive table, of course, will be a cake. Since the dessert is served at the very end of the New Year's meal, the sweet product should be light and airy. Cake with cream will aggravate the already heavy load on the digestive system. Therefore, the lemon biscuit will be optimal.

Festive biscuit 2019

• 4 eggs.
• 3 art. flour.
• 2 tbsp. Sahara.
• Lemon.
• 1 tsp vanilla sugar.
• 2 tsp baking powder.
• 1 st. milk.
• Breadcrumbs.
• Vegetable oil 50 ml.

1. Break the eggs into a large bowl. Add sugar (regular and vanilla) and baking powder. Beat everything well with a mixer.
2. In the resulting mixture, grate the zest (peel) of the lemon. For a more lemony flavor, add squeezed fruit juice.
3. Add flour, milk and vegetable oil. Once again, beat everything well with a mixer.
4. Pour some vegetable oil into a baking dish. Please note that the form should be high, because the biscuit will rise. Sprinkle flour and breadcrumbs into butter. You should get a non-liquid and not dry mixture. Coat the entire surface of the baking dish with this mass.
5. Preheat oven to 220-250℃. Pour the dough into the mold and set to bake. It is not advisable to open the oven until the dough has risen.

The cake will bake for 30-40 minutes. To check if it's done, poke it with a knife. If the knife is dry (no sticky dough), then the dessert is ready.

If everything is done correctly, then getting the biscuit out of the mold is easy. Run a knife along the side borders of the biscuit and form. Turn the mold over and the biscuit itself will fall out of it.

The biscuit is fluffy and airy. Sprinkle the finished product with powdered sugar, cocoa or coconut flakes.

Alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks

The choice of alcoholic beverages by strength depends on: the needs of the guests and the hosts of the feast. A well-known rule: when drinking alcoholic beverages, drink them as the strength increases and have a good snack so as not to spoil the holiday.

The choice of soft drinks is also a matter of taste only:

• Tea (green, black),
• Coffee (natural, instant).
• Cocoa.
• Dried fruits compote.

The choice of menu for the New Year's table 2019 depends on the family's budget and taste preferences. Separately, you should consider a children's, dietary menu, because an immature digestive system may not be able to cope with an abundant amount of fatty and heavy food. Since there is usually a lot of work on New Year's Eve, choose dishes that do not take much time and effort, but at the same time will be tasty and unusual.

A few weeks before the New Year, when a barely noticeable magical aroma of tangerines already appears in the air, a very crucial moment comes in every family. The whole family gathers for advice, armed with a pen and a notebook, and a New Year's menu is compiled. This is a very responsible, time-consuming, but at the same time incredibly pleasant thing. I would like the New Year's table to have delicious salads, and unusual snacks, and hot dishes, and dessert, and properly selected drinks. Each member of the family has his own opinion and his own “taste of the New Year” on this matter. For some, this is the unchanged and favorite salad "Olivier", and for others - stuffed chicken or jellied fish. We offer you, without changing family traditions, to cook all your favorite things, and even to please guests and loved ones with something new and original, offering wonderful recipes for New Year's dishes.

The New Year's menu includes snacks, salads, a hot dish, a side dish, various drinks, fruits and, of course, desserts. Without them, it is simply impossible to imagine the New Year. The main rule of the New Year's menu: food should be varied, tasty and beautiful!
