Preparation
Step 1
Prepare the ingredients. Instead of mayonnaise, you can use sour cream or natural yogurt. Choose any cheese you like, preferably a firm one; the original recipe uses a simple semi-hard fermented cheese.
Step 2
Wash the cucumbers well and cut them into thin strips. If desired, peel them first for a more delicate texture.
Step 3
Wash and peel the carrot. Grate it on a medium grater; a Korean-style carrot grater can also be used.
Step 4
Finely grate the cheese.
Step 5
Peel the garlic and finely chop it with a knife or press it through a garlic press.
Step 6
Combine the cucumber, carrot, cheese and garlic in a bowl and add the mayonnaise. If preferred, dress the salad with sunflower or olive oil instead.
Step 7
Season with salt and ground black pepper to taste, mix well and serve immediately with meat or fish dishes.
