Recipe instructions

Step 1

Step 1
How to make a salad with rice, cucumber and egg? Prepare your food. You can use ready-made rice for the salad (for example, a leftover side dish from dinner). If you are preparing it specifically for salad, then it is better to take a long-grain variety, it will remain crumbly after cooking.

Step 2

Step 2
Boil the rice. How to cook rice? Rinse it several times, fill it with water and put it on medium heat. When the water boils, add a pinch of salt, reduce the heat to low and simmer for about 20 minutes. The rice should not be overcooked, but should become soft. When this happens, drain the water, drain the rice in a colander and let cool completely.

Step 3

Step 3
Boil the eggs. How to boil eggs? Wash the eggs and place in a saucepan, add water and put on fire. Bring to a boil and cook for about 10 minutes. Drain the water from the saucepan and immediately pour ice water over the chicken eggs. This will help you peel them easily. Peel the cooled eggs and finely chop them with a knife.

Step 4

Step 4
Wash the fresh cucumber and cut it into cubes with a knife. Wash the green onions, dry and finely chop. If you don’t have green onions, replace them with green onions, previously pickled in vinegar and sugar to remove excess bitterness.

Step 5

Step 5
Place the cooled rice in a salad bowl, add chopped chicken eggs, green onions and fresh cucumber. Add salt to taste (a pinch of salt is enough, since mayonnaise contains a sufficient amount of salt) and season with mayonnaise.

Step 6

Step 6
Place the salad in the refrigerator for several hours until it is well soaked.

Step 7

Step 7
You can serve the salad in a common salad bowl or in small portioned salad bowls. Bon appetit!
