Craving a flavorful Spicy Crab Salad This Kani Salad recipe combines freshness with a zesty kick that satisfies every taste bud in just minutes
Ingredients
Scale
8 oz of imitation crab meat, shredded
1 cup of cucumber, thinly sliced
1 cup of shredded carrots
1/2 cup of avocado, diced
1/4 cup of green onions, finely chopped
1/2 cup of mayonnaise
1–2 tablespoons of sriracha
1 teaspoon of soy sauce
1 teaspoon of sesame oil
Salt and pepper to taste
Optional: sesame seeds and chili flakes for garnish
Instructions
Prep your ingredients: Start by shredding the crab meat into bite-sized pieces. If using real crab, feel free to break it up delicately with your fingers.
Slice and dice: Thinly slice the cucumber and shred the carrots. Dice the avocado carefully—nobody likes mushy avocado in their salad!
Mix the dressing: In a large bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, sriracha, soy sauce, and sesame oil until combined. It should be smooth and creamy with a lovely kick!
Combine: Toss the crab, cucumber, carrots, avocado, and green onions in the dressing. Mix gently; you don’t want to smash the avocado!
Season: Add salt and pepper to taste. Don’t be shy—seasoning is where a lot of the flavor comes from!
Chill: For best results, refrigerate the salad for about 30 minutes before serving. This allows the flavors to meld together beautifully!
Serve: Top with sesame seeds and chili flakes if you like, and dig in!
