Salad with Chinese cabbage, crab sticks and corn

Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 20 mins

1. STEP 1

   

   How to make a salad with Chinese cabbage, crab sticks and corn? Prepare all the necessary ingredients for the salad. It is better to take Chinese cabbage small - you can find heads weighing about 150-200 g. The leaves of this cabbage are tender and juicy, light green. In this case, there will be no need to think about where to put the leftovers from the head of cabbage.

2. STEP 2

   

   Cut the crab sticks into small cubes. You should not cut them too coarsely, as we need a light consistency. Ideally, each piece of crab sticks should not exceed the size of corn kernels.

3. STEP 3

   

   Wash and dry the Chinese cabbage. Cut out the stalk and the hard white parts of the leaves adjacent to it. Cut the remaining green leaves into small strips.

4. STEP 4

   

   Boil the eggs hard, cool, peel and finely chop with a knife. You should not grate eggs, otherwise the taste of the egg will be practically undetectable and the salad will turn out to be similar in consistency to viscous porridge.

5. STEP 5

   

   Place the canned corn in a sieve and dry. It is convenient to take the canned corn for this salad in small jars. The grains must be dense and whole. If the corn kernels are loose and the top skin separates from them, then this corn is not of very high quality and should not be used. You need to make sure that all the liquid drains from the corn.

6. STEP 6

   

   In a salad bowl, combine crab sticks, Chinese cabbage, canned corn and eggs. If desired, you can add chopped dill or parsley.

7. STEP 7

   

   Season the salad with mayonnaise. If desired, the salad can be salt and pepper to taste. I usually don't add additional spices to salads with mayonnaise. Mayonnaise does this job perfectly on its own. In addition, you can over-salt the salad if the mayonnaise and crab sticks are salty enough on their own.

8. STEP 8

   

   Mix everything thoroughly. You can serve the salad immediately. Or put it in the refrigerator for 15-20 minutes. Bon appetit!

Do you want to make a quick, simple and very tasty salad? Then I recommend trying a salad with Chinese cabbage, crab sticks and corn. Boiled the eggs and cut them into small cubes. Peking cabbage cut into strips. I cut the crab sticks into cubes and drained the liquid from the corn. I put corn, eggs, cabbage, and crab sticks in a salad bowl. Added mayonnaise and stirred. I didn't add salt. Quick, simple and very tasty 👍Thanks to the author for the recipe 😘
