Ingredients

Salad

  • 16 oz Kani (Imitation Crab Meat)
  • 1 medium cucumber
  • 1 medium ripe mango
  • 1 ripe avocado

Dressing

  • ½ cup mayonnaise
  • 2 tablespoon sriracha sauce
  • 1 ½ tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon sesame seeds

Instructions

Dressing

  • Add the mayo, sriracha, soy sauce, and lemon to a small mixing bowl. Whisk together and set aside in the fridge.

Salad

  • Peel the kani apart to create long thing strips.
  • Peel the cucumber. Use a sharp knife or a vegetable peeler to create ribbons of cucumber. The cucumber can also be cut into thin strips versus flat ribbons.
  • Peel the mango and cut it into thin strips.
  • Remove the shell from the avocado and cut half of it into cubes. Cut the other half into thin slices for topping
  • Place kani, cucumber, ¾ of the mango sliced, and the cubed avocado into a medium bowl.
  • Add the dressing and gently mix. Tongs work well to evenly coat the salad in the dressing.
  • Plate the salad and top with mango and avocado slices. Sprinkle with sesame if desired.

Notes

The salad will keep covered in the fridge for about 3 days.
