Salad with smoked sausage and fresh cucumber

Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 10 mins

1. STEP 1

   

   How to make a salad with smoked sausage and fresh cucumber? Prepare the necessary products. You can take half-smoked, smoked or long hunting sausages, which I took. I wanted a juicier salad, so I took a large cucumber and one smaller one. Take young cabbage, but if this is not possible, then stocked cabbage will also work. I added just a little onion, but use your own taste as a guide.

2. STEP 2

   

   Wash the cabbage, remove the top leaves and cut into four parts. One fourth of a head of cabbage (1-1.5 kg) is just the right weight for a salad. Finely chop the cabbage, place in a prepared salad bowl, add salt and mash with your hands to release the juice. Place in a convenient, deep salad bowl.

3. STEP 3

   

   Remove the sausage from the packaging and peel the skin. Cut as desired: into strips, half circles or circles. Place in a salad bowl with the cabbage. I took this small sausage. But you can take any one. I have made a salad with cabbage, fresh cucumber and sausage more than once and it goes perfectly with any smoked sausage, ham, and if you wish, you can even take boiled sausage.

4. STEP 4

   

   For the salad here I use regular onions, but you can use salad red or fresh green onions. Peel the onion and finely chop it into half rings. Place in a bowl with previously prepared ingredients.

5. STEP 5

   

   Wash fresh cucumbers in running water, dry with a towel, cut off the ends and grate on a coarse grater. If desired, you can cut into strips with a knife or in another way. Add grated cucumber to the salad bowl. It is better to do this just before serving the salad, otherwise the cucumbers will give a lot of juice.

6. STEP 6

   

   Add mayonnaise to the salad, salt to taste and mix everything thoroughly. In addition to mayonnaise, you can add other dressing, for example, from natural yogurt or sour cream.

7. STEP 7

   

   The salad can be served immediately, garnished with fresh dill or parsley. This vitamin salad will perfectly complement potato dishes and more. Bon appetit!

Nice, filling salad. I’ll share another version of the salad with smoked sausage, but not with cabbage, but with beans.

I love this salad because it is quick and easy to prepare. Today there was no sausage, but there was raw smoked pork balyk. I used to always prepare this salad without onions, but then I saw the recipe on my favorite website and was inspired. We really liked it, especially my husband, an onion lover, who, as a bonus, got the other half of the onion that was not included in the salad. The freshness of cabbage and cucumber perfectly offsets the heavy smoked meats. The dressing can also be made a little lighter, but this will be a different recipe. I added a little sesame on my own. I recommend trying a simple, hearty, uncluttered salad, you won’t be disappointed. It can be eaten as a complete meal on its own.

I really liked the recipe for salad with smoked sausage and fresh cucumber for its simplicity and speed of preparation! . I used white cabbage, but I think it would be delicious with Peking cabbage too. I cut the sausage into small strips. I added ground black pepper, we like it spicy. Served with dill sprinkled on top. The salad turned out to be very piquant due to the smoked sausage, fresh and crispy. The ingredients go well together. It was delicious! Thanks for the recipe!
