Step-by-step cooking
Step 1:
How to make Turtle Salad? First, prepare everything you need for our salad. Boil the chicken fillet in slightly salted water (if you decide to do it with it). Boil hard-boiled eggs and cool them. Choose apples to your taste, almost any will go here: sweet, sweet and sour.
Step 2:
Cut the chicken fillet (boiled, fried or smoked) into small cubes.
Step 3:
Peel three of the four eggs. Put one aside for now. Separate the whites and yolks. Grate them separately on a fine grater.
Step 4:
Grate cheese and fresh apples, peeled.
Step 5:
Peel, slice and pour boiling water over the onion to remove unnecessary bitterness.
Step 6:
Rinse the onion in cold water and drain all the liquid from it. Dry the onion.
Step 7:
Put the walnuts in a plastic bag, put them on a board and use a rolling pin to chop them.
Step 8:
You can just chop them with a knife to the state of coarse crumbs.
Step 9:
On a wide flat dish, start laying out the salad. The first layer should be grated egg whites.

Brush the chicken layer with mayonnaise.

Put onions on top.
Step 13:
Sprinkle with grated apples.
Step 14:
Smear the apple layer with mayonnaise.
Step 15:
Sprinkle with grated cheese, covering the entire surface of the salad and giving it the shape of a "turtle". I do it with my hands.
Step 16:
Sprinkle the cheese with yolks and smear with mayonnaise.
Step 17:
Sprinkle the salad with walnuts, imitating a turtle shell.
Step 18:
Decorate the salad in your own way.
Step 19:
Remember that we still have one whole egg left? I added a turtle head made of egg, peas of pepper and a piece of apple with red skin.
Step 20:
For the legs, take walnut halves. With the help of mayonnaise, finish the mesh on the "shell" of the turtle and decorate with onion rings on top.
Step 21:
Our delicious salad is ready.

Turtle salad is a recipe that seems funny to me. Maybe that's why one day I decided to cook it. It turned out to be surprisingly delicious, do not think that this salad is limited only by appearance.

So that the mucous membrane of the eyes is not irritated when slicing onions, rinse the onion and knife with cold water. The cutting board will not absorb the unpleasant onion smell if you rub it with a piece of lemon before slicing.
It is better to prepare mayonnaise yourself. It will be tastier and healthier. See the interesting ones here
