Kani Salad
Description
Kani Salad features imitation crab (kani) shredded by hand, layered with thin strips of carrot, cucumber without seeds, and ripe mango for a touch of sweetness. The vegetables are cut into julienne strips for bite-sized texture. Japanese mayonnaise brings a creamy, slightly tangy element that binds the salad.
Lemon juice freshens the flavors, and seasoning with salt and ground black pepper adds subtle enhancement without overpowering the mix. The salad is usually served immediately or chilled, often placed on iceberg or romaine lettuce leaves, adding a refreshing crunch alongside the creamy kani and fruity mango.
Ingredients
- 145 grams imitation crab meat Kani
- 1 medium carrot
- 2 medium cucumber or 1 large
- 1 piece Mango ripe
- ½ cup mayonnaise Japanese
- half lemon
- salt
- black pepper ground
Instructions
- Peel the carrots and trim off the ends. Cut into 2 or about 3-inch long. Cut into julienne.
- Do the same with the cucumber but do not include the core with seeds.
- Shred the crab sticks by hand by gently pressing a piece from end to end to loosen the strips and then separate each strip from one another.
- Peel the ripe mango. Cut the flesh into thin slices until you reach the core. Do the same to the other side of the core. Stack the slices together and cut into strips.
- In a large bowl, add the cucumber, carrots, Kani, mango and Japanese mayo. Squeeze the juices of half a lemon on top and toss.
- Season with salt and pepper as needed and give it another toss until all ingredients are well blended.
- Serve immediately or refrigerate until ready. Serve on top of a bed of iceberg or romaine lettuce.
