How to serve crab salad for New Year's Eve in an original way: surprise your guests

A traditional dish that every family prepares for the New Year is crab salad based on crab sticks. Mayonnaise is added to the chopped ingredients and simply mixed in a salad bowl. But there is a much more interesting idea.

The idea of making an original New Year's appetizer with crab sticks was published on the Instagram page of food blogger Oleksandra Palamar (sashenka_palamar). Here, the familiar crab salad is served in the form of balls.

Ingredients:

• 200 g of crab sticks
• 3 boiled eggs
• 3 melted cheeses
• 3 tbsp of corn
• 2 cloves of garlic
• mayonnaise
• salt and pepper - to taste

Method of preparation:

1. Grate all ingredients on a fine grater.

2. Divide the grated crab sticks in half. Leave some in a bowl for rolling the balls, and mix the rest with the cheeses, eggs, garlic, corn, and mayonnaise.

3. Add a few drops of mayonnaise.

4. Mix everything.

5. Use your hands to form balls and roll them in crab sticks.

6. Put in the refrigerator for an hour.

7. This appetizer can be served individually or on a tartlet, crackers or baguette
