Crab salad with seafood

Step-by-step recipe

Step 1:

Prepare the base. Start by cutting the crab sticks into small cubes and placing them in a large glass bowl.

Step 2:

Then clean the squid and cut it into thin strips. Add the squid to the bowl.

Step 3:

Cut the shrimp in half and add them to the bowl.

Step 4:

Remove the seeds from the bell pepper and cut it into small cubes, also adding it to the bowl.

Step 5:

Add the eggs and herbs. Peel the boiled eggs and cut them into small cubes, adding them to the remaining ingredients.

Step 6:

Chop the dill and add it to the bowl.

Step 7:

Chop fresh lettuce leaves and add to the remaining ingredients.

Step 8:

Season and mix. Season the salad with salt and pepper to taste. Dress everything with mayonnaise and mix thoroughly with a spoon.

Step 9:

Transfer the finished salad to a beautiful plate. Serve immediately or refrigerate for 15–20 minutes for a more intense flavor.

Cooking tips:

Enhance the flavor: For a richer flavor, add a pinch of black pepper or a squeeze of lemon juice before mixing the ingredients. This will add a slight tartness and refreshing aroma to the salad.

Avoid mistakes: The main mistake is using too much mayonnaise. Add it gradually to prevent the salad from becoming too runny. It's also important to chop all ingredients evenly to ensure each piece is juicy and delicious.

Substitute ingredients: If you don't have sweet peppers, you can use bell peppers or cucumbers.

Serving: Serve the salad as a mound, garnished with herbs or olives. For a more festive look, arrange it in a salad bowl or serve in individual bowls.
