Recipe instructions

Step 1

Step 1
How to make a salad with cucumbers, cheese and crab sticks? Very simple. To begin, prepare the necessary ingredients according to the list. You can buy store-bought mayonnaise or make your own. Below the steps you will find a link to a catalog of homemade mayonnaise recipes. You can add or replace the vegetable part to your liking. You can also complement the salad with other seafood, such as boiled shrimp, squid or mussels.

Step 2

Step 2
Peel the crab sticks from the factory film and cut into small cubes. The salad will look beautiful and neat if you cut all the ingredients into pieces of the same size and shape (for example, cubes).

Step 3

Step 3
Boil the eggs hard, cool and peel. Cut into small cubes.

Step 4

Step 4
Grate the cheese on a coarse grater. Any cheese for the salad is suitable, from regular Russian to mozzarella. The main thing is that the cheese is tasty. Read the article on how to replace different types of cheese. Link at the end of the recipe.

In a bowl, combine crab sticks, eggs, cucumbers, cheese and herbs.

Step 8

Step 8
Season the salad with mayonnaise and mix thoroughly. If desired, you can season the salad with salt and pepper. Personally, I usually donʼt add spices to salads with mayonnaise.

Step 9

Step 9
Place a cooking ring (Ø 14-16 cm) on a plate. Place the salad in it and compact it. If you don’t want to put the salad in a ring, you can simply serve it in a salad bowl. Place in the refrigerator for 15 minutes.

Step 10

Step 10
Remove the cooking ring before serving. Garnish the salad with crab sticks and fresh herbs and serve. Bon appetit!
