Ingredients

• 200-250 grams of beets;
• 50-70 grams of green onions;
• 50 grams mozzarella;
• 3 tablespoons of mayonnaise;
• 1-2 medium cloves of garlic;
• salt and spices - to your taste.

Cooking

1. Wash the beets thoroughly and boil them until fully cooked, about 30-35 minutes in plenty of boiling water. The cooking time depends on the size of the beets. If the beets are large, it might be convenient to cut them in half beforehand. Let the cooked beets cool down. Wash the green onion tops with cold water.

2. Finely chop the prepared green onion and place it in a salad bowl.

3. Add the grated beetroot (using a fine or medium grater). If you prefer, you can cut the beetroot into small cubes instead of grating it. It’s up to your taste.

4. Next, grate the mozzarella cheese on a medium grater and add it to the salad bowl as well.

5. Finally, season the salad with mayonnaise, and for a tangy flavor, add a little bit of minced garlic.

6. Mix everything well and let the salad sit for 5-10 minutes to infuse the flavors. Serve, garnished with fresh herbs. It can be served individually. This salad pairs wonderfully with mashed potato meatballs, other potato dishes, spaghetti, or various porridges. Choose what you like best!
