Recipe instructions

Step 1

Step 1
How to make a salad of beets, carrots and raisins? Prepare the necessary ingredients. Boil or bake the beets in advance. Cook the washed beets in their skins over medium heat for about 40 minutes. To bake, wash the beets, cut off the stems and wrap in foil. Bake the beets in the oven for about 25 minutes at 180 degrees. The readiness of the beets is checked with a fork or the tip of a knife — it should be easily pierced. Cool the beets and grate them on a medium grater.

Step 5

Step 5
Grate any type of hard cheese on a fine grater. The salad can be supplemented with pine nuts; they will add a wonderful pine flavor and aroma to the dish. If desired, you can replace pine nuts with more affordable walnuts; the taste will change a little, but it will still be delicious. Walnuts need to be shelled and finely chopped.

Step 6

Step 6
Place all ingredients in a bowl, season with mayonnaise and mix thoroughly so that the ingredients are evenly distributed and well soaked in mayonnaise. If desired, mayonnaise can be replaced with sour cream, then the salad will turn out healthier and less calorie. If you use sour cream in the salad, you need to add salt to the salad. Mayonnaise provides enough salt for the dish. Place the salad in the refrigerator to cool and soak.

The salad can be served in portioned bowls or in a large salad bowl. You can decorate the salad by sprinkling it with sesame seeds, cranberries and fresh parsley. Bon appetit!
