You can easily make a simple salad from the category "guests on the doorstep" in a minimal amount of time. The recipe will require inexpensive products. choose quality crab sticks, homemade eggs, Peking cabbage leafy and fleshy bell peppers in a vibrant colour. The salad looks appetizing and bright on the table. It can be served in a spacious salad bowl or served in transparent glasses. I recommend starting cooking by boiling eggs. Put the eggs in a saucepan, pour cold water, cook over low heat. In this case, the yolk is very juicy, and the protein is soft and tender. . Cut the peeled eggs into small cubes and place in a mixing bowl. While the eggs are cooking, slice the Beijing cabbage thinly. Salt it lightly, sprinkle with lemon juice at will. Peel bell peppers from seeds, cut into cubes with a size of 0. 8 cm. Defrost crab sticks the day before. Peel them from cellophane, leave a couple of pieces of sticks to decorate, grind similarly. Put the corn on a sieve, carefully drain the excess liquid. Rinse dill, dry, grind. Put all the prepared components to the eggs, add pepper, salt, mix. Put the mayonnaise in an auxiliary bowl. Add the crushed garlic, mix the dressing. Season the salad, leave to infuse for 30 minutes if you have time, or serve immediately. Garnish with a rim of chopped crab sticks before serving. The salad tastes good with a basic crab meat flavour and a savoury note of garlic dressing. The dish is suitable for festive service or small gatherings. The salad can be served as a stand-alone dish for a late dinner or taken with you for a picnic. Crab salad is hearty and light at the same time, you will probably like your loved ones and guests.
