The story behind this recipe
Salata Șuba has a lot to offer, both visually and in terms of flavor. I find it to be the most successful recipe using smoked fish that I have ever eaten. The original recipe calls for marinated herring (I chose trout), and it is served especially on New Year's Eve. I believe it is their version of a festive salad.
The ingredients needed to make this wonderful salad for 2 people are:
200 grams of smoked trout (I warmly recommend the one from Valeputna)
half a boiled beetroot
2 medium carrots
half a red onion or 2 stalks of green onion
200 grams of red cabbage
2 medium boiled potatoes
2 boiled eggs
2-3 tablespoons of mayonnaise
salt
pepper
Mix the chopped red cabbage with the mayonnaise and a pinch of salt. Arrange the salad in a mold and add the grated potato, seasoned with a little salt and pepper. The next layer consists of grated carrot mixed with chopped onion, salt, and oil to taste. Continue with the smoked trout broken into small pieces, then grate a whole boiled egg on top. We decorate with grated, seasoned beetroot, and the salad is ready :)
You can also assemble it in a glass dish or individual serving bowls. The choice is yours. The taste is what matters, and believe me, you won't wait until New Year's Eve to serve this wonderful combination.
Enjoy your meal!
