做法

分步操作

1. 1

   Boil the potatoes, carrots, and beets in separate pots until tender. This will take about 20-30 minutes for carrots and potatoes, and 40-60 minutes for beets.

   约 1小时

   烹饪提示： Boiling vegetables separately prevents the beets from coloring the other vegetables.

2. 2

   Once cooked, let the vegetables cool completely. Peel them, then grate each vegetable separately using the coarse side of a grater.

   约 15分钟

   烹饪提示： Cooling vegetables before grating makes them easier to handle and prevents the salad from becoming mushy.

3. 3

   Arrange the diced herring evenly on the bottom of a serving platter or a deep dish.

   约 2分钟

4. 4

   Spread the finely chopped yellow onion over the herring layer.

   约 1分钟

5. 5

   Gently spread half of the grated potatoes over the onion layer. Lightly season with salt and pepper if desired.

   约 2分钟

6. 6

   Evenly spread a thin layer of mayonnaise over the potato layer.

   约 1分钟

7. 7

   Add all of the grated carrots as the next layer, followed by another thin layer of mayonnaise.

   约 2分钟

8. 8

   Spread the remaining grated potatoes, then another thin layer of mayonnaise.

   约 2分钟

9. 9

   Top with the grated beets, pressing gently to form an even layer. Cover the entire beet layer generously with the remaining mayonnaise, ensuring all sides are covered.

   约 3分钟

   烹饪提示： The top layer of mayonnaise acts as the 'fur coat' and should be smooth and even.

10. 10

    Cover the platter with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to meld.

11. 11

    Before serving, garnish with fresh dill if desired.
