Description

A simple dish to prepare. The unusual name of this salad, "General's," is connected to its appearance and composition. The ingredients used make it nutritious, which will appeal to any man, while its presentation will require military precision from you. All layers must be neatly arranged and coated with mayonnaise. You can shape the salad using a special cooking ring or prepare it in a regular deep salad bowl. Meat is an essential part of this salad. While it's commonly made with boiled beef, I suggest preparing it with chicken fillet. The result will be tender, juicy, and extremely delicious. Serve chilled.

    Carefully remove the salad from the mold and, using your imagination, decorate it as you like. I went with a classic presentation: I spread a mayonnaise lattice on top of the salad, arranged chopped herbs around the edges, and garnished the center with chopped nuts.
