Method of Preparation

1. Preparing the Base

1. Grate the Potatoes:

   • After boiling and peeling the potatoes, coarsely grate them using a grater. Take a serving dish with a ring mold and arrange half of the grated potatoes in it as the first layer.

   • Sprinkle the potatoes with a little salt and ground black pepper for seasoning. Then, spread a layer of mayonnaise over the potatoes.

2. Adding the Tuna

1. Prepare the Tuna:

   • Open the can of tuna, drain the oil, and break the tuna into small pieces.

   • Evenly spread the tuna over the mayonnaise-covered potatoes, creating a flavorful fish layer.

3. Layering with Vegetables and Cheese

1. Green Onions:

   • Wash and finely chop the green onions. Spread them evenly over the tuna layer, then cover with another layer of mayonnaise.

2. Grated Cheese:

   • Grate the cheese coarsely and spread it over the green onions. Once again, apply a thin layer of mayonnaise.

3. Grated Carrots:

   • Coarsely grate the boiled carrots and spread them evenly over the cheese layer.

4. Adding the Eggs

1. Prepare the Eggs:

   • Peel the boiled eggs and separate the whites from the yolks. Grate the egg whites on a coarse grater and spread them over the carrot layer. Sprinkle with salt and ground black pepper, then cover with a layer of mayonnaise.

2. Grate the Yolks:

   • Mash the egg yolks well with a fork and spread them evenly on top of the salad as the final layer. This will give the salad a beautiful, golden finish.

5. Final Touches

1. Remove the Ring and Decorate:

   • Carefully remove the ring mold from the salad. You can decorate the top with additional herbs, slices of boiled egg, or any other garnish of your choice.

6. Serving

• Slice and Serve:

  • Slice the tuna salad into portions and serve immediately. The combination of flavors and textures in this salad is sure to impress!

Tips for Success

• Customization: Feel free to customize the layers according to your taste. You can add other ingredients like bell peppers or olives for extra flavor.

• Chilling: If you prefer a chilled salad, you can refrigerate it for an hour before serving. This will allow the flavors to meld together even more.
