Step 1:
How to make a salad with cucumbers, cheese and crab sticks? Very simple. First, prepare the necessary ingredients according to the list. You can take store-bought mayonnaise or cook it yourself. The vegetable part can be supplemented or replaced according to your taste. You can also supplement the salad with other seafood, for example, boiled shrimp, squid or mussels.
Step 2:
Peel the crab sticks from the factory film and cut into small cubes. The salad will look nice and neat if you cut all the ingredients into pieces of the same size and shape (for example, cubes).
Step 3:
Boil hard-boiled eggs, cool and peel. Cut into small cubes.
Step 4:
Grate the cheese on a coarse grater. Cheese for salad is suitable for anyone, starting from the usual Russian, ending with mozzarella. The main thing is that the cheese is delicious.
Step 5:
Wash and dry the cucumber. Cut into small cubes. The skin, if it is not rough, not damaged and not bitter, does not need to be cut off.
Step 6:
Wash the parsley, shake off the moisture and chop finely. If desired, you can replace or supplement with other herbs, for example, dill, cilantro, green onions or use a mixture of different herbs.
Step 7:
In a bowl, combine crab sticks, eggs, cucumbers, cheese and herbs.
Step 8:
Season the salad with mayonnaise and mix thoroughly. If desired, you can season the salad with salt and pepper. Personally, I usually don't add spices to salads with mayonnaise.
Step 9:
Place the cooking ring (Ø 14-16 cm) on the plate. Put the salad in it and tamp it. If you don't want to put the salad in a ring, you can just serve it in a salad bowl. Refrigerate for 15 minutes.
Step 10:
Remove the cooking ring before serving. Garnish the salad with crab sticks and fresh herbs and serve to the table. Bon appetit!

How to buy crab sticks correctly? Be sure to pay attention to the expiration date of the product. Surimi meat (minced white fish) should appear in the list of ingredients in the first place. Important! Do not buy the product if there is frost on it. This is a sign of repeated freezing. Fresh sticks should be free of gray and yellow spots, elastic and slightly moist. If the product is sticky, it means it is spoiled.

It is better to prepare mayonnaise yourself. It will be tastier and healthier. See here interesting recipes for homemade mayonnaise.
Also, as a dressing, you can use not only mayonnaise, but also sour cream or natural yogurt. They can be taken separately or mixed with mayonnaise in any proportion to your taste - this will reduce the calorie content of the dish.
