Roll up a plate of cheese so that you get a calla. To do this, wrap one corner of the cheese inside. And on top, cover the opposite corner of the cheese plate.

We also invite you to prepare

Step 1: prepare the ingredients.

Wash the carrots thoroughly under running water, peel them with a knife and place them in a saucepan. Pour water into it (about half), put the pan on the fire and cook until the carrots are fully cooked. We check readiness - piercing it with a knife. If it cuts easily, the carrot is ready. While the carrots are cooking, peel the onion from the husk, wash it and cut it as small as possible. The procedure is lacrimal, but very important. The smaller you cut, the better. We throw the canned mushrooms into a colander and rinse them very thoroughly under running water. We do not touch small mushrooms, but it is advisable to cut large hats with a knife into two or four parts. Next, take a frying pan, pour vegetable oil into it and put it on fire. As soon as the pan heats up, put the chopped onion and about 100-120 grams of canned mushrooms there.

Saute until the onion is browned (5-7 minutes). Take the pan off the fire. By this time, the carrot should have been cooked, so we take it out of the saucepan, cool it a little (so that you can take it with your hands) and cut it into thin strips. Leave three thin slices of carrots for decoration. Three eggs in a saucepan, where the carrots were boiled, boil “hard-boiled” (about 10 minutes), as soon as they are cooked, peel, and also cut into cubes as small as possible.

Cut the boiled chicken fillet into cubes of about 0.5x0.5 cm. Grate hard cheese on a fine grater. Rinse and finely chop the dill, leave three sprigs for decoration.

Step 2: "collect" the salad.

Put the ingredients in the salad bowl in this order. At the very bottom we put mushrooms fried with onions, grease with mayonnaise on top. Then, chopped chicken fillet, mayonnaise again. Pineapple slices, mayonnaise. Grated cheese, mayonnaise. Chopped, boiled carrots - mayonnaise. Chopped eggs, mayonnaise. Sprinkle chopped dill on top.

Step 3: serve to the table.

Calla salad is almost ready, it remains only to decorate it. We take our layers of processed cheese and roll them with callas (bags), insert a slice of chopped carrot into each calla and decorate with dill sprigs and green onion feathers. Cool the finished Calla salad in the refrigerator (15-20 minutes) and serve. Bon appetit!

As a hard cheese, you can take any kind of cheese.

To make it easier to peel boiled eggs from the shell, it is enough to immediately cool them in cold water from hot water.

Some types of canned mushrooms require very thorough rinsing under running water, such as butter mushrooms.
