Step-by-step cooking
Step 1:
Prepare the necessary ingredients for the preparation of the Anthill salad with chicken and potato straws. Any part of the chicken will do: thighs, shins, fillets. I took the hips, with them the salad will be more juicy. Tomatoes, if possible, take fleshy, with less juice.
Step 2:
Boil a small amount of water in a saucepan. Wash the chicken, put it in boiling salted water. Cook the chicken over medium heat until tender.
Step 3:
Remove the finished chicken from the broth, let cool. Separate the meat from the bones, cut into strips or small pieces.
Step 4:
Peel the potatoes previously washed in water, grate them on a grater for Korean carrots so that the potatoes have the shape of straws.
Step 5:
Put the potato straws in a colander, rinse several times in cold water to wash off the starch. This is necessary so that the potatoes do not stick together during frying. Put the potatoes on a towel, dry them.
Step 6:
Heat vegetable oil in a frying pan, put a portion of potato straws. Fry over medium heat with frequent stirring until golden brown. Spread the potatoes in small portions so that they are fried evenly. There is no need to salt.
Step 7:
Let the finished potato straws cool.
Step 8:
Grate the cheese on a coarse grater.
Step 9:
Rinse the vegetables thoroughly under cold water. Cut the cucumbers into strips. The skin, if it is not rough, not damaged and not bitter, does not need to be cut off.
Step 10:
Cut tomatoes into small cubes.
Step 11:
Put a layer of 2/3 of the prepared chicken on a plate, apply a mesh of mayonnaise on top.
Step 12:
The next layer is 2/3 chopped cucumbers and mayonnaise again. Do not press the layers, the salad should be loose.
Step 13:
Put 2/3 of the tomato, add salt.
Step 14:
Then a layer of 2/3 grated cheese.
Step 15:
Repeat all the layers with the remaining amount of ingredients, smearing the layers with mayonnaise. At the same time, form each next layer with a slightly smaller diameter than the previous one to make a slide.
Step 16:
Put mayonnaise strips on the top and sides of the salad.
Step 17:
Sprinkle potato straws thickly on top of the salad.
Step 18:
Wash the dill in cold water, dry it, chop it finely. Sprinkle the salad with dill at the bottom of the circle.
Step 19:
Serve the salad immediately. Bon appetit!
Choose juicy but dense tomatoes. Soft fruits do not keep their shape well, in the process of slicing and cooking they will spread into a shapeless mass and spoil the appearance of the dish.
You can check whether the oil has warmed up well enough in a frying pan in a simple way. Lower a wooden spatula into it. If bubbles have gathered around it, then you can start the frying process.
It is better to prepare mayonnaise yourself. It will be tastier and healthier. See the interesting ones here

Also, as a dressing, you can use not only mayonnaise, but also sour cream or natural yogurt. They can be taken separately or mixed with mayonnaise in any proportion to your taste - this will reduce the calorie content of the dish.
