In addition, you still need to take care to please the New Year's menu to the symbol of the coming year (in this case, you will have to curry favor with the Fire Rooster). We will tell you what to cook for the New Year 2017 so that all your wishes come true. Recipes with photos will help you make a choice.

When drawing up the New Year's menu and decorating the festive table, it is advisable to take into account several important points.

The Rooster will not like it if guests and household members gobble up “his relatives” by both cheeks. So any dishes that contain chicken must be excluded from the menu. Eggs are also on the New Year's table - 2017 is extremely undesirable. This does not mean that you will have to do without such familiar salads as Olivier and Herring under a Fur Coat, the recipes of which include eggs. You’ll just have to modify the recipes a little by replacing chicken eggs quail or completely refusing to add eggs. “Olivier” will have to be made with beef, since chicken is prohibited, but it can also be in sausage.
Roosters like all kinds of grains, peas, and corn. Hot and cold snacks containing these ingredients will not disappoint the symbol of 2017. In this regard, Olivier salads (with beef and quail eggs), from crab sticks and similar ones have the right to take their rightful place on the festive table.
Do not forget that the Rooster will reign as Fire in 2017. This means that the table should be decorated brightly. If the tablecloth is red, the plates can be white, and vice versa. Dishes that contain beets, pomegranates, and carrots will add bright colors. Here again it is appropriate to recall “Herring under a fur coat” and the salad “ Garnet bracelet", which looks very festive and elegant (the photographs confirm this). Besides, almost everyone likes the taste too.
New Year's symbols (Christmas tree, snowman, rooster) can be used in table decoration. For example, an ordinary “Olivier” will sparkle if you put the silhouette of a cockerel or chicken on it from corn, peas, or pomegranate. The tail can be made from parsley, basil, celery. You will find other design ideas in the photo.
The rooster is an energetic bird. Heavy snacks are not what he dreams of. For this reason, when creating a menu for the New Year, give up pork, dishes that require a lot of mayonnaise or other fatty sauce, as well as anything fried and smoked. Light salads, cold appetizers, oven-baked fish or beef - this is what is best prepared for the New Year 2017.

In conclusion, I would like to warn our readers against using plastic dishes- The Rooster will not like this idea. We also don’t recommend going overboard with alcohol, otherwise you’ll end up in a fight, which is not a good sign to start the New Year with.

A good idea would be to serve at the New Year's table or filled with delicious snacks.

You shouldn’t make too many dishes for the New Year – the cheerful Rooster, the symbol of 2017, doesn’t like overeating.

It is worth remembering that there should be no chicken dishes on the table, as the owner of the year will not like it very much. But it is even recommended to serve eggs; if you decorate them beautifully with red caviar, you can attract wealth and prosperity to your home. Remember that you don’t want to overload the New Year’s table, the food should not be heavy and plentiful, and the serving should not be too pretentious. It is advisable to have baked goods on the New Year's table.

Many housewives prepare simple and tasty recipes for the New Year 2018 (recipes with photos) this holiday, and this dish is just that!

We will need:

round bran bread - 2 pcs.

veal or pork fillet - 0.5 kg,
canned champignons - 1 small jar,

Preparing the filling:

For our dish for the New Year 2018, the recipe requires you to prepare an amazing filling!

Julienne filling

Wash the meat thoroughly and cut it into cubes. Cut the onion into rings. Melt the butter in a frying pan and place the meat in it, frying it until golden crust. To the semi-finished product add onions and thoroughly washed, peeled fresh champignons, cut into small slices.

Add seasonings and simmer for fifteen minutes. Open the jar of pickled mushrooms, pour the liquid into a separate cup and add the mushrooms to the frying pan with our vegetables and meat. After simmering all the ingredients for another ten minutes, gradually add flour to create a sauce as thick as sour cream. After the completed manipulations, we send it to our filling homemade sour cream. Dilute the resulting sauce with a small amount of liquid that was drained from the mushrooms. Mix everything thoroughly and simmer until all ingredients are ready. You should simmer the contents of the pan as much as possible so that little liquid remains.

Grate the cheese on a fine grater. Place the filling into bread plates, sprinkle with grated cheese and herbs. Place the baskets with julienne into the oven preheated to 180 degrees so that the cheese is baked and the bread becomes crispy.

After you fill the bread cup ready-made julienne and bake it, you should immediately serve the dish hot.
