Are you looking for a quick and tasty salad recipe? Today, I will share with you so-called Red Sea Salad recipe. This salad has only 4 main ingredients (excluding seasoning) and has bright eye-catching color that arouses appetite at once, for sure. It will be a perfect addition to the variety of festive meals on your table, barbecue or just simple dinner. Maximum 10 minutes and the salad is ready to be served.
Sometimes, I like to add boiled egg to the salad and make it more nutritious. In this case, I can even use it as a standalone meal (with sprinkled over croutons). I can see that someone can have problems with using mayonnaise for the sauce. You can always substitute it for your favorite salad dressing, olive oil being the easiest. For example, you can try adding combination of the following ingredients: yogurt + mustard + lemon juice. I am sure it still going to be delicious.
Red Sea Salad Ingredients:
- 240 g stick-style imitation crab;
- 2 tomatoes;
- 1 red bell pepper;
- 200 g semi-hard cheese;
- 1-2 tbsps. mayonnaise;
- 2 garlic cloves;
- salt and red pepper spice.
How to make delicious salad at home using imitation crab, veggies and cheese:
- Cut crabsticks into thin slices and place them in the deep mixing bowl.
- Vegetables rinse under running water, pat them dry with paper towels.
- Cut tomatoes into thin slices and add them to the bowl with crabsticks.
- Cut bell pepper in the shape of thin slices and then combine it with other ingredients.
- Grate cheese using extra-course grater. I like to match the size of all ingredients to one shape in one salad.
- Combine pressed garlic and mayo to make sauce for the salad. Stir it in, season salad with salt if necessary, add red pepper for more vibrant colors, and flavor. Carefully mix the salad, place it in the fridge for some time to cool it down a bit.
- Before setting the tables for dinner, simply move it to the serving plate. Enjoy your meal!
