Crab salad with avocado

This crab stick salad is very easy to prepare and tastes beautiful, making it perfect for both holiday meals and everyday dishes. Avocado and high-quality crab sticks are the foundation of this salad's flavor.

Step-by-step recipe

Step 1

Shred the Chinese cabbage and place it in a salad bowl.

NOTE: For the salad according to our recipe, it is better to chop the cabbage not too coarsely, but not too finely either.

Step 2

Now you need to chop the dill and add it to the bowl with cabbage.

Step 3

Let's move on to cutting the crab sticks - cut them not too finely, into strips.

NOTE: Be sure to choose high-quality crab sticks. Dry ones will simply ruin the salad.

Step 4

Add corn to our crab stick salad.

NOTE: Try to choose the highest quality corn as well – crab salad with avocado will be much tastier with quality ingredients.

Step 5

Now you need to cut the avocado in half, remove the pulp, and then cut it into thin strips.

NOTE: It's best to cut the avocado slowly – after carefully cutting, gently twist the halves to loosen the pit. Carefully remove the pit and scoop out the pulp with a spoon, being careful not to tear the skin. A crab stick salad served in avocado molds would be a unique addition to a holiday table.

Step 6

We need lemon for the avocado. Cut it and squeeze the juice onto the avocado.

Step 7

Mix 1 teaspoon of mustard and 4 tablespoons of mayonnaise and dress our crab stick salad with this sauce.

NOTE: This salad works best with hot sauce, so our recipe calls for mayonnaise and mustard.

Step 8

Add salt and pepper to taste. Mix the crab salad with the avocado.

Step 9

Place the salad in avocado molds. Garnish with dill sprigs, lemon wedges, and crab stick slices.

Cooking tips

This crab salad with avocado turned out so delicious, you'll want to try it right away and appreciate the flavor. And to make it even more delicious, here are a few tips for preparing it.

To add depth and complexity to the dressing's flavor, add a pinch of sugar or white pepper to the mayonnaise and mustard. This won't alter the basic spiciness, but it will add a more balanced and complex flavor to the sauce.

If you're using avocado halves as serving bowls, be sure to rub lemon juice not only on the flesh (which goes into the salad) but also on the inside of the avocado itself. This will prevent the skin from browning when served.
