Description

Suitable for both holidays and everyday meals. Every hostess wants not just to feed her guests, but to surprise them and earn compliments for originality. I'll tell you: it can be served warm or chilled.

Instructions

  1. 1

    Step 1

    Step 1

    For slicing, we will need: three sweet bell peppers of different colors.

  2. 2

    Step 2

    Step 2

    Cucumbers and radishes.

  3. 3

    Step 3

    Step 3

    For the sauce: cottage cheese, yogurt, a clove of garlic, dill, and salt. Mix everything in a blender until creamy. If garlic isn't appropriate for your table, add black ground pepper for heat.

  4. 4

    Step 4

    Step 4

    For individual portions, divide the cottage cheese sauce among narrow transparent cups (I use 75 ml shot glasses), filling them two-thirds full.

    Step 5

    Step 5

    Cut the pepper into thin strips.

  6. 6

    Cucumbers — cut into strips; radish — thin slices.

  7. 7

    Step 7

    Step 7

    Cut the vegetables into matchsticks and insert them vertically into the cottage cheese sauce to imitate a rooster’s tail. Score the radishes and place them on the cups to imitate the rooster’s head.

    The appetizer is ready. Serve at the table.
