Russian Style Crab Salad (Крабовый Салат)
Russian Style Crab Salad (Крабовый Салат)
This recipe uses imitation crab, aka crab sticks, but if you wish to use real crab, feel free. I personally like imitation crab so I will be using that. And this is the first recipe I have listed with the Russian text in the title as well, very cool I think. I prepared this on 30 Sep 2017, delicious! Link to the Shortcut is listed in the Recipe Notes section.
Ingredients
- 750 grams imitation crab, chopped or chopped and shredded, (1½ lbs)
- 6-7 hard boiled eggs, diced, Shortcut
- 1 small onion, finely diced
- 1 cup mayo
- 2 tablespoons horseradish sauce, or to taste
- 1 can corn, drained well
- 1 can sweet peas, drained well
Instructions
- In a large bowl, add everything except the peas and mix, add more mayo as needed to coat everything well.
- Add the peas and gently fold in, this keeps them from getting mushy. Store in the fridge for several hours before serving.
- Served along some Roast Red Pork, delicious! You can certainly serve this as a main dish as well.
Notes
Crab stick prices vary widely, from 90 to 270 Baht/500 grams, not sure of the taste or quality as I have only bought Tesco brand at 94 Baht/450 gram package and the taste is quite good, for 750 grams, figure about 150 Baht. For 8 servings, this is about 52 cents per serving.
Shortcut: Perfect Hard Boiled Chicken Eggs.
I made this on 30 Sep 2017, and it is delicious! Made as written I just cut the recipe in half, perfect. The horseradish is key in this, adds great flavor to the dish. Highly recommended. When I make this again, I will experiment with frozen corn and peas.
