Step by Step guide

Step 1

Prepare all the ingredients.

Step 2

Grate the potatoes, beets, and carrots with salt and wrap them in foil. Place the vegetables on a baking sheet and put them in an oven preheated to 390°F. Bake until tender: the potatoes and carrots will need about 40 minutes, while the beets will take about 1 hour.

Step 3

Bring water to a boil in a saucepan, add the eggs. Cook for 13 minutes.

Step 4

Finely chop the dill.

Step 5

Cut the trout into small cubes.

Step 6

Cool the cooked eggs under running water, peel them, and grate them on a coarse grater.

Step 7

Dice the carrot and potato into small cubes, and grate the beetroot on a fine grater.

Step 8

Peel the apple, remove the seeds, and grate it using a large grater.

Step 9

Layer the salad on a platter, spreading mayonnaise between each layer. Here is the recommended order of ingredients: potatoes, trout, apples, eggs, carrots. Finish with a layer of beetroot and spread mayonnaise on top as well.
