Divide the remaining 7 pieces into yolks and whites - cut the first into small cubes, and grate the second on a fine grater. Chop mushrooms and olives in the same way as smoked meat and sausages. Put everything in a deep salad bowl, salt, add mayonnaise and mix thoroughly.

After 30 minutes, on a large, preferably oval or rectangular dish, form the body of the future rat in the form of a droplet. Place the grated egg whites on top. Cut the two eggs that remained at the very beginning in half and stuff with salad. On top of them, place two halves of a tomato and make dots with mayonnaise.

  • champignons - 300 g;
  • green onions - 2-3 branches;

  • boiled chicken eggs - 5 pcs.;
  • instant coffee - 1 tablespoon;
  • mayonnaise 67% - 1 tbsp;
  • red caviar - 1 tbsp.;
  • purified water - 200 ml.

Preparation

Chop the onion into small cubes, and cut the mushrooms into random pieces. It is best to make them medium in size so that they feel good in the salad. Then fry the two ingredients in sunflower oil. Chop the green onion and cut the boiled chicken quarter into small cubes. If the meat was skinned, then it is better not to use it, but first remove it.

When the mushrooms and onions are fried until tender, season with salt and pepper to your liking. Turn off the fire and let them cool well. At this time, engage in shredding a small cube of pickled cucumbers, and grate cheese and eggs on a fine and coarse grater, respectively.

It is more convenient to coat the layers with mayonnaise if you first place it in a pastry bag, and then make a mesh of the desired density.

Collect the salad in layers using a split ring on a large platter: chicken quarter (lightly salt and pepper), fried mushrooms with purple and green onions, pickled cucumbers, grated eggs and cheese. Coat each layer with mayonnaise. Leave in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.

Now there is time to prepare an interesting, bright and tasty snack. To do this, pour some water into a saucepan, bring to a boil. Cut off the blunt side from the eggs and separate the yolks from it, and the whites will serve as boletus caps. Remove the yolk from the rest of the eggs with a teaspoon.

When the water has boiled, add coffee to it, and then put the "mushroom caps" into the liquid. It is very important that the mass boils, then the staining will be uniform. On average, soak the proteins for about 3 minutes. Then add mayonnaise and red caviar to the yolks and mix thoroughly.

When the appetizer is prepared, remove the salad from the refrigerator and remove the mold. Stuff the eggs with the prepared mixture and place them on the free edges of the dish in random order. On the top layer of the main dish, place the inscription "Happy New Year" with pomegranate seeds, and place the sprigs of dill around. It will turn out very nicely. Put on colored caps on the "mushrooms" and put parsley at the legs.
