Salad "Seledka Pod Shuboi"

This salad is one of my favorite russian salad and easiest to make. Making it might be considered time consuming but it's very delicious. The main ingredient is the herring. It can be translated to English as "Herring under the coat" It is considered a dish for any occasions.

2 thick salted herring (or 1 can of peeled herring) 4 average carrots
3 average beets 5 potatoes
5 eggs mayonnaise

Boil vegetables and eggs. Boil beets in a separate pot to avoid mixture of colors.
Peel skin from herrings, cut them along the spine. Take out all the bones.
If it's possible you can buy already cleaned herring marinated in oil.
Cut herring meat into very little pieces.
Chop all the vegetables and eggs.
Do not mix everything together!!!

Take a large dish.
Put 1/2 potatoes evenly on the bottom.
Then put 1/2 carrots as the next layer.
Next layer is 1/2 of eggs.
The next layer is 1/2 of herring meat. Put herring meat evenly on the bottom.
If you like onion, you can put sliced onions on the herring. Put 1/2 beets on top.
Then spread mayonnaise evenly (thin layer).
Make the next half of the salads creating similar layers with everything that is left.
Spread the top with the mayonaise.
This salad must look like a cake.
The number of layers depends on your taste.
The salad can be made by layering all the ingriedients only once.
Put the dish aside for few hours (1-2).
