Among the many different appetizers, one of the least known is the Narcomaniac salad. Probably, housewives instinctively avoid the dish because of its name. Meanwhile, there is nothing narcotic in the salad. And they nicknamed him so offensively solely due to the presence of culinary poppy in the list of ingredients. But no one avoids buns and pies with him! Let's restore justice, cast aside prejudice - and prepare a delicious and simple snack.
Recipe for salad "Junkie"
First of all, marinate a couple of onions, chopped in half rings, in a solution of vinegar. After 5-10 minutes, drain the liquid and leave the vegetable to dry.
Now take the ham, cut it into strips of medium thickness and put on a dish. On top we place the onion, on it - circles of tomatoes. We will smear this layer with mayonnaise, but not too abundantly. Top with croutons from the package, preferably with the taste of bacon or ham. Now we apply mayonnaise generously, and sprinkle with poppy seeds on top.
Salad "Junkie" can be placed in the refrigerator so that the sauce penetrates intothe bottom layers. But not for long, so that the croutons do not become sour. The poppy flavor makes the appetizer original, evoking nostalgia for childhood with grandma's buns and at the same time making you feel like a completely adult - if the salad is consumed with high-grade drinks.
Fantasy on the theme
Salad "Junkie" is also called "Joy", "Delight" or "Dream". At the same time, some components change, but croutons and poppy seeds are always included in the dish.
Variation No. 1: instead of ham - fried pork, instead of tomatoes - Korean carrots, onions are not marinated, but fried, layering is not observed, salad requires mixing.
Variation number 2: the meat component becomes chicken (ideally smoked), croutons are taken with chicken flavor, poppy seeds are sprinkled on tomatoes, and grated cheese is sprinkled on top of the salad.
In principle, all modifications are quite worthy of attention. Therefore, let's whitewash the reputation of an undeservedly ignored salad.
