Main Ingredients- 1 head broccoli
- 100g imitation crab sticks
- 1 tsp honey
- 4 Tbsp mayonnaise
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
Today, I’ll introduce a super simple summer side dish recipe that you can enjoy by lightly blanching and gently mixing with imitation crab sticks. When you don’t want to spend a lot of time cooking in the heat, this recipe will help you whip up a wonderful side dish in no time.
Step 2
First, let me show you how to blanch broccoli perfectly. Add a pinch of salt to the boiling water. This will help maintain the vibrant green color of the broccoli while keeping it crisp. Break the broccoli into bite-sized florets. Slice the imitation crab sticks diagonally into about 1cm thick pieces. They should be a nice, easy-to-eat size.
Step 3
Now, it’s time to add the delicious seasoning. Add 1 teaspoon of honey for a touch of sweetness. If you don’t have honey, you can substitute it with 1/2 teaspoon of sugar, but honey provides a deeper, smoother sweetness.
Step 4
Next, generously add 4 tablespoons of mayonnaise for creaminess and a rich, savory flavor. You can adjust the amount of mayonnaise to your preference. Now, add all the ingredients and gently toss them together. Be careful not to overmix, as this can break down the broccoli. Just gently combine everything so the ingredients are well-coated. We want to preserve the crisp texture of the broccoli!
Step 5
Ta-da! Your visually appealing and delicious Broccoli and Crab Stick Salad is ready. This side dish is a huge hit, especially with children who might not usually eat broccoli. You sometimes see it served at buffets, and it’s surprisingly tasty, which is why I make it often at home. The combination of crisp texture and savory mayonnaise is exquisite, and you won’t be able to stop once you try it. It’s a fantastic way to deliciously consume fresh vegetables and protein.
