My potatoes to peel is left on the ground, we put in a pan and pour water to just cover potatoes. We put a pot over medium heat "in uniform". Chilled pork back of nashpigovyvaem carrots and garlic, rubbed with mustard mixed with honey prisalivaem and leave twenty minutes in the refrigerator.

Fungi my, cut into small cubes, as well chops onions. In a frying pan in the dining room teaspoon of vegetable oil and 50 g of butter dissolves black pepper to taste, passeruem onions and mushrooms. They should be slightly browned, crust zazharistaya us today to anything.

Once excess moisture is evaporated and mushrooms flavor reported their presence on your kitchen all household, breed, creamy wheat flour - gently, without lumps. The mixture is then poured into a pan and stir constantly until until mushroom sauce did not reach the desired consistency.

No time to turn off the gas and set aside the pan to the side, how to cook potatoes. Drain the excess water, put it to dry. Light the oven. Meat from the refrigerator, pack it in either arm for roasting (this will prevent the oven from the fat fireworks), or in a special pan. I have for these purposes there is a deep pan with Teflon coating and a special grille.

The meat is put into the oven somewhere, so that it evenly fried on all sides. If you like the stew more cake, pour in the pan a little water. In this case, to get a crispy crust for five minutes until cooked meat need to be raised higher. The temperature should be at 170-180 degrees.

While we were dealt with meat, potatoes cool. Now he does not burn the hands while trying to clear it from the rind.

Excavated from the mass of the potato can be mixed with mushroom sauce, if it is not enough volume. If you have enough mushrooms, it is better not to do so. Baskets stuffed mushroom mass, spread on Pour oil to form a microwave oven, sprinkle cheese on top - and three minutes in the microwave oven browned. If this equipment in your kitchen yet, you can put a second tier of the meat.

When hot, we have already discussed, proceed to the salad. A bunch of celery without leaves my, knock down the stalks. Cut it to the squares, pieces of the same shape and cut pineapple. Walnuts can grind in a coffee grinder or a mortar, up to the task as a food processor with a special nozzle. If neither the first nor the second or third you are not available, use an ordinary grater.

In a glass salad bowl Put the celery, mixed with pineapple. Sprinkle with grated nuts and filled with lemon juice. If you love mayonnaise, you can add a little bit, but to my taste, it is better without him. While we lay the table, the meat reaches the desired condition.

We put on the table wine and a bowl of fruit and candy, decorate the room scented candles - and here he is, a holiday.
