Few people do not like seafood, especially when they are combined in one incredibly delicious Mediterranean dish. Salad with squid and shrimp is a truly unique combination of flavors. Even the pickiest gourmet will appreciate it. Among other things, this dish can be considered dietary if you notice mayonnaise dressing for yogurt.

Sea salad is rich in useful trace elements, vitamins and minerals:

• Squids help to remove cholesterol from the blood, they have very little fat and carbohydrates, a lot of protein.
• Shrimps are just a godsend for those who seek to keep their youth as long as possible, because they contain vitamin E, which is necessary for the body, which prevents cell aging.

Cooking process

Well, now all the advantages of this salad are revealed to you, we can start cooking it. Let's start with squid. Here you can use two options: canned squid or fresh-frozen.

The former will reduce the cooking time, as the squid is already ready to eat. The second should go through a simple processing process, namely: in order to clean the squid from the film, put the carcasses in a saucepan and pour boiling water over it.

The film quickly rolls up and is very easy to separate, then carefully clean them from the insides and cut off the fins from the carcasses. Ready? Perfectly! Next, bring water to a boil in a saucepan, add some salt and place the squids there. We wait until the water boils and detect 3-4 minutes. It is important not to overcook them so that they do not become hard and like chewing gum. This stage has been passed.

Next in line are shrimp. Take a colander and pour the contents of the bag into it, wash it under running water so that the ice melts. If you bought dry-frozen shrimp - wonderful, you saved both money and precious time.

Then you need to boil water (for 1 g of shrimp about 2-2.5 liters of water, so we need about 1-1.5 liters), salt and add seasonings to it, such as: bay leaf, a mixture of peppers, dill and a couple of lemon slices , then the shrimp will be fragrant and even more palatable.

Now you need to send the shrimp to the pan and cook after boiling for about 3 more minutes. Gently drain the water, peel the shrimp from the shell. Carefully make an incision along the entire length of the body and remove the intestinal vein. It leaves an unpleasant aftertaste, so it is better to get rid of it in advance.

The next step is to boil the eggs. For a Mediterranean shrimp and squid salad recipe, you need 10 quail eggs, but if you don’t have them at home, and it’s too far to run to the store, you can replace them with chicken with peace of mind, you will need no more than five.

Dish decoration

Let's start assembling the salad directly: prepare a beautiful flat plate in which the dish will solemnly fall on the dining table, and a bowl in which you will mix the above ingredients.

• Squids can be cut at your discretion, but they will look most harmonious in this dish in the form of rings.
• Add to them whole shrimps, quail eggs cut in two and carefully mix with red caviar, salt to taste.

Salad dressing plays an important role, so we will approach it with all responsibility. It all depends on whether you want it to be more or less high-calorie. In the first case, we fill the dish with mayonnaise, in the second - low-fat yogurt.

The most pleasant and final moment is the design of the dish. We lay out a lettuce leaf on a flat plate, put a culinary ring on it and fill it, gently pressing it so that later the salad does not fall apart. Now carefully remove the form.

The culinary masterpiece is already ready to eat, but it’s worth adding a couple more artistic touches: make several thin long slices of red fish (it’s better to take salmon) and form light waves from them on the surface of the salad, randomly sprinkle a teaspoon of caviar on top. Voila! Bon appetit!

Let's get ready!

We cook seafood. We need to clean the shrimp and cut into two or three parts, and cut the squid into small pieces. Leave a couple of whole crayfish necks for decorating the dish.

• Got eggs? Change course to a rich serving of greens. Tear more lettuce or Chinese cabbage leaves and add 2-3 tablespoons of canned corn or peas.
• Let's not forget about the spicy dressing: it gives the dish a fresh touch. Chic option whip with a fork.

Olive oil (50 ml) + mustard (½ teaspoon) + 1 garlic clove + a pinch of salt and sugar + a pinch of black pepper + balsamic or apple cider vinegar (1/3 teaspoon)
