Sunflower Salad
6 servings
60 minutes
The 'Sunflower' salad is not just a dish but a true decoration of the festive table. It got its name due to its bright appearance: golden corn kernels symbolize the flower's heart, while crispy chips represent its petals. This dish originates from Russian cuisine, where hearty and festive snacks are valued. Tender chicken fillet, aromatic mushrooms, and sweet corn create a rich palette of flavors complemented by the softness of eggs and the juiciness of leek. Mayonnaise binds the ingredients together, making the salad juicy and rich. 'Sunflower' is perfect for celebrations and family gatherings, impressing guests not only with its appearance but also with its harmonious taste. It is served chilled, and chips are added just before serving to maintain their crispy texture.
