Instructions
  1. Commence the preparation of the Korean carrot and chicken salad by assembling the necessary ingredients. Korean carrots can either be prepared from scratch or purchased ready-made. Choose a cheese variety that suits your taste, ensuring it’s easy to grate. For an added flavor boost, consider incorporating a small amount of garlic.
  2. To assemble the salad, pre-cook the chicken fillet and eggs. Boil the chicken meat in salted boiling water for 25-30 minutes. Simultaneously, boil the eggs in boiling water for 7-8 minutes. Drain the hot water from the eggs and transfer them to cold water to cool. Allow both the boiled chicken meat and eggs to cool.
  3. Dice the cooled chicken fillet into small cubes.
  4. Arrange the salad in layers within a serving ring. Place the ring on a suitable plate and add the diced chicken meat as the first layer. Gently press down and coat with mayonnaise.
  5. Grate the cheese using a medium or fine grater and create the next layer within the ring. Apply a small amount of mayonnaise on this layer as well.
  6. Cut the Korean carrots into slightly smaller pieces and add the next layer within the ring. Smear mayonnaise over the carrots.
  7. The final layer consists of grated eggs. You can grate the entire egg or, if preferred, separate the whites and yolks. Begin by arranging the grated egg whites.
  8. Grate the egg yolks over the top of the salad.
  9. Carefully remove the ring from the salad. Allow the salad to cool in the refrigerator briefly before serving. Enjoy your meal!
Recipe Notes

Any type of cheese works well for this dish—whether it’s hard, semi-hard, or soft, like mozzarella. The crucial factor is that it should be flavorful, high-quality, without milk fat substitutes, and have good melting properties.

Ensure to thoroughly wash the eggs before use, as even seemingly clean shells may harbor harmful bacteria. Using food-safe detergents and a brush is the most effective method.

Opting to make your own mayonnaise is a superior choice, promising a more flavorful and healthier outcome. Additionally, as a dressing, you can use not only mayonnaise but also alternatives such as sour cream or natural yogurt. These can be used independently or blended with mayonnaise in any proportion according to your taste, offering a reduction in the overall calorie content of the dish.
