Quick Beef Salad

Quick Beef Salad - Simple and Delicious Recipe Preparation time: 20 minutes Cooking time: 15 minutes Total time: 35 minutes Number of servings: 6 Beef salad is a traditional Romanian dish, perfect for festive meals or to impress guests. Today, I will present a quick version, ideal for moments when you are in a hurry but want to enjoy a delicious taste. Let's get started! Basic ingredients: - 1 bag of frozen vegetables for beef salad (approximately 400-500g) - 150 g pressed ham - 3 pickles - 1 raw yolk - 1 boiled yolk - Salt and pepper, to taste - 200 ml oil - 2 teaspoons mustard - Lemon juice, to taste - 5 tablespoons milk - 2 tablespoons sour cream Step by Step: 1. Boil the vegetables: Start by putting water in a large pot, add salt, pepper, and a little seasoning. When the water starts to boil, add the frozen vegetables. Cook them for about 10-15 minutes until they become tender but not too soft, to maintain texture. 2. Draining the vegetables: After the vegetables are cooked, remove them with a slotted spoon and place them in a sieve. Let them drain for a few minutes so that the excess water is eliminated. This step is essential to avoid diluting the mayonnaise later. 3. Preparing the ingredients: Meanwhile, cut the pressed ham and pickles into small cubes. These ingredients will add a savory taste and texture to the salad. 4. Mixing the ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the drained vegetables, ham, and pickles. Gently mix so that the ingredients combine without crushing. 5. Preparing the mayonnaise: In another bowl, prepare the mayonnaise. Mix the raw yolk with salt, pepper, mustard, and lemon juice. Start incorporating the oil gradually, continuously mixing with a whisk or hand mixer until the mixture becomes creamy. Finally, add the boiled yolk, milk, and sour cream, mixing well to obtain a fine mayonnaise. 6. Final homogenization: Pour the mayonnaise over the vegetable, ham, and pickle mixture. Gently mix so that all the ingredients are well coated with mayonnaise. 7. Serving: Place the salad in a nice bowl or platter. You can keep a little mayonnaise to decorate the surface. Use a spatula or spoon to create a nice pattern. You can decorate it with thin slices of pickles or a few peas. Practical tips: - If you want a lighter version, you can replace part of the mayonnaise with Greek yogurt. - Experiment with other ingredients, such as olives or bell peppers, to give it a different taste. - I recommend preparing the salad a few hours before serving so that the flavors blend perfectly. Serving suggestion: Beef salad is served cold, alongside fresh bread, for a delicious lunch or dinner. It is also perfect as an appetizer for festive meals. With this simple recipe, you can quickly prepare a delicious beef salad that will delight everyone! Enjoy every bite and cherish the moments spent with loved ones!
