Mimosa – Russian holiday salad

Freeze the butter for about an hour beforehand. Boil the eggs until hard and separate the egg whites from the yolks. Finely dice the onion. Now finely grate or sprinkle the mixture onto a large, flat plate in the following order, directly over the plate. Do not touch the plate with your hands! First, grate the egg whites of 7 eggs. Grate the cheese over them. Crumble the tuna between your fingers and sprinkle it over the top. Pour enough mayonnaise over the egg whites and spread it evenly with a knife to completely cover the tuna, including the sides. It should look like a cake. Grate the frozen butter over the egg. Sprinkle the onion over the egg. Grate the egg yolks of 5 eggs over it. Cover completely with mayonnaise, just like the tuna. Grate the egg yolks of 2 eggs over the egg mixture as a final decoration. Cover and let the whole thing cool in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes.
