On the eve of the winter holidays, the brain is aggressively terrorizing two thoughts: "What to meet?" And "What to cook for the New Year?". And if in the first question we are not your advisors now, then with the second problem we will try to understand.
If you annually listen to the recommendations of astrologers, then you know - to cook for the New Year you need what you like about the symbol of the coming year, and most importantly, the festive table should please the eye with its diversity. And what do we usually prepare for the New Year? Famous for the whole country salads, we clean mandarins and pour out glasses of champagne? It's all good, but do not be afraid of new, maybe unusual recipes. And also stop making the table a heavy meal, after which not only the eye does not enjoy its own shape, but the well-being is not the best. You can also cook for the New Year, which is not only necessary to the liking of the symbol of the year, but also does not make you regret in the morning about overeating.
So, on New Year's Eve we cook only light meals, not forgetting to decorate dishes. And what do we traditionally consider to be the easiest? That's right, vegetables and fish, no, about meat and sweets, too, should not be forgotten, but we try to make them not saturated with fat and other inefficiencies. The fish itself is good, and if you cook red meat rolls with cheese and greens for the New Year, then this appetizer will appeal to the guests so that no one will remember Olivier.

This way of making makes beef tender and juicy, and the wine sauce will make it even tastier. You can make original canapés with cheese, olives, grapes, and, in general, everything that fantasies will last. We also try to please the eaters with interesting potatoes with cheese stuffing with a top made of bacon. To do this, in the finished potatoes make a deepening and fall asleep grated cheese, wrap with bacon and bake in the oven.
Sweet cake without baking, decorated with pieces of fruit or delicate dessert "Tiramisu" is perfect for sweet.
Want to surprise guests with an unusual cocktail, but do not feel the talent of the bartender? In order not to learn to beautifully throw up and catch bottles with different drinks, we prepare for the New Year sorbet from the lemon. Cook the syrup from water and sugar, then add lemon zest, lemon juice, vodka and freeze. After a while, you need to get it from the freezer and mix it well to remove pieces of ice. Before serving, we take out the ready sorbet from the freezer and lay out on the glasses. We add champagne or other drink to the glass and decorate with mint leaves. A beautiful and tasty drink will be an excellent addition to a merry New Year's Eve.
