Photo recipe for salad Pomegranate bracelet
1. Boil the pork for 3-4 hours. The meat should be soft, easily separated from the bones and crumble. The broth can be used in making soup, and the meat must be chopped and seasoned with mayonnaise. Let's taste the resulting mixture and add salt to taste if necessary.
2. Let's prepare a plate on which we will arrange the salad. Place a smooth-walled glass in the center.
3. Place the pork in a circle around the glass on a plate. Press with a spoon so that the meat ring holds its shape.
4. Boil the carrots, peel them and grate them using a grater. Season with mayonnaise and pepper.
5. Place the carrot layer on top of the meat layer, level it with a spoon, giving the salad its shape.
6. Boil the potatoes, peel them and grate them with a coarse grater. Mix with mayonnaise.
Just carry it with you...
7. Place the potato mixture around the glass.
8. Place the nuts in a bag and crush them with a rolling pin. Place half on top of the potato mixture. In fact, you don’t have to put the nuts in a separate layer, but simply add them to the final beet mass, so as not to bother. However, if you definitely want to get a multi-colored multi-layer salad, we do it according to the rules.
9. Boil the eggs for 10 minutes in boiling water, peel them and grate them on a coarse grater. Season with mayonnaise.
10. Place the egg mixture on the previous nut layer. Level with a spoon.
11. Peel the beets, rub them with a coarse grater, add the remaining nuts, chopped garlic and mayonnaise. Mix well.
12. Transfer the final layer to the resulting puff salad ring.
13. Carefully remove the glass from the center of the Garnet bracelet. To do this, do not jerk it sharply upward - this can damage the layered structure of the salad. We rotate it around its own axis, carefully pulling it out of the structure. As soon as we remove the glass, coat the salad on all sides with mayonnaise.
Ready! All that remains is to decorate the salad with pomegranate seeds. To do this, cut off the top of the fruit peel, cut the sides, and then turn the pomegranate over a deep bowl, pouring the seeds into it. To separate the grains from the peels and films, pour water into a bowl, where all the waste we do not need will float up. We catch particles of peel and films, and pour the water with pomegranate into a colander. Decorate the Pomegranate bracelet salad with grains.
I propose to prepare the popular “Pomegranate Bracelet” salad with pork, or rather one of its variants. This salad tastes very interesting, and it looks very impressive on the holiday table. So I recommend...
To prepare the “Pomegranate Bracelet” salad with pork, prepare the ingredients: boil the potatoes and beets separately, you will also need ready-made pork, for example boiled-smoked, pomegranate, onions, prunes and (or high-quality store-bought).
Soak the prunes in hot water, then cut into strips. Peel and grate the potatoes. Place a glass in the center on a flat dish so that you later get a salad in the shape of a ring, i.e. bracelet Place the prunes in the first layer, and then a layer of potatoes. Add mayonnaise.
Make the next layer of pork pieces and add finely chopped onion. If desired and if necessary, the onion can be scalded, although it itself will marinate and soften in taste from the mayonnaise of the next layer.
Grate the beets and mix them with mayonnaise to taste. From this mass, make a layer of “Garnet Bracelet”.
Remove the seeds from the pomegranate and place them on top of the beetroot layer. Carefully remove the glass.
After this, let the salad stand in the refrigerator for a while to soak.
“Pomegranate Bracelet” salad with pork is ready for the celebration. Serve it up!
“Pomegranate Bracelet” is a salad that, in both appearance and taste, is simply created for festive feasts. Its distinctive feature is the assembly in the form of a ring, decorated with pomegranate seeds. The taste is not inferior to its external splendor, the highlight of which is the combination of walnuts and pomegranate.
The meat component in the classic recipe is chicken fillet, but you can deviate from the rules and prepare a “Pomegranate Bracelet”, for example, with beef, pork, boiled tongue or even ham. Each option will be good in its own way. Our “Pomegranate Bracelet” will be with pieces of lean pork.
Required ingredients:
- large pomegranate – 1 pc.;
- potatoes – 300 g;
- eggs – 3 pcs.;
- carrots – 200 g;
- boiled beets – 200 g;
- pork – 230 g;
- walnuts – 60 g;
- mayonnaise – 300 g.
How to prepare Pomegranate Bracelet salad with pork:
1. After hard-boiling the eggs, grind them on a grater.
2. Peel the potatoes, boil them and also grate them.
3. We do the same with carrots: peel, cook, grate.
4. The beets in our recipe are already boiled, so we simply remove the skin from them and grate them too.
5. Boil a piece of pork until soft, let it cool and cut into oblong pieces.
6. Dry the nuts and crush them with a rolling pin. You need to get medium sized nut crumbs.
7. On a flat round dish, place a glass upside down, around which we form the first layer - potato. Lightly compact, especially at the border with the glass, and grease with mayonnaise.
8. Then place the pork cubes. Cover with mayonnaise.
9. The next layer is carrot. We also seal and lubricate it.
10. Distribute the grated eggs on top of the carrots. We try to lay this layer as tightly as possible. Cover with mayonnaise.
11. Sprinkle with nut crumbs.
12. And cover the entire surface of the salad with beets mixed with mayonnaise. The beet layer should be dense, without gaps.
13. Peel the pomegranate and sprinkle the whole salad with grains. Slowly, twisting slightly, pull out the glass.
It should be noted that ripe pomegranate must be used. Its grains should be sweet with barely noticeable sourness. If the pomegranate is unripe, the taste of the salad may be spoiled.
14. If the grains do not form a completely dense layer when sprinkling, carefully fill the voids. The denser the pomegranate layer, the more impressive the salad will look. The bottom of the salad can be shaded with chopped herbs if desired.
It turns out very solemn. We put it in the refrigerator for soaking, and then surprise our guests and loved ones with the beautiful and incredibly tasty “Pomegranate Bracelet” salad.
