Delicious salad "Crab Delight": a bright and appetizing dish

How many crab stick salad recipes do you know? I started my acquaintance with this product knowing only one cooking option, but now I can boast of a collection of more than 20 ways to create such dishes. Interestingly, most of them are the result of experiments with the ingredients of the salad. One of these variations is Crab Delight.

Step-by-step recipe for Crab Delight salad

One day I found a whole package of crab sticks in the freezer. Since there was no corn and fresh cucumber at home for making a traditional salad, which is very popular in my family, I decided to experiment and cook something from what I can find in the refrigerator. Fresh tomato and bell peppers, a slice of cheese, a couple of boiled eggs and aromatic garlic were chopped and mixed with sticks and then seasoned with mayonnaise. The salad turned out to be simply delicious.

Ingredients:

• 200 g crab sticks;
• 2 eggs;
• 150 g of hard cheese;
• 1 tomato;
• 1-2 cloves of garlic;
• 3 tbsp. l. mayonnaise;
• salt and black pepper to taste.

Preparation:

1. Boil eggs hard-boiled, cool, peel, grate on a coarse grater.

   

   Boiled eggs for salad can be cut with a knife or grated

2. Cut the defrosted crab sticks into medium-sized cubes or also grate on a coarse grater.

3. Cut the tomato into small pieces, leave on a cutting board or place in a colander for 10 minutes to drain the juice. These steps are necessary so that the liquid does not turn the rest of the ingredients into an unappetizing porridge.

   

   It is better to drain the juice of chopped tomatoes, as it can spoil the taste and appearance of the dish.

4. Pass a clove of garlic through a press, mix with mayonnaise, a pinch of salt and black pepper to taste.

   

   Salad dressing is made with mayonnaise, minced garlic, salt and ground pepper

5. Layer prepared ingredients in layers: tomatoes, dressing, crab sticks, dressing, eggs, dressing again. If desired, the products can be simply mixed and put in portions or in a common salad bowl.

6. Sprinkle the salad with the coarsely grated hard cheese.

   

   The finishing touch of the salad is grated hard cheese
