1. Wash Chinese cabbage leaves under running water and dry with a paper towel. Use a sharp knife to chop it into thin strips. Do not wash the entire head of cabbage if you do not use it right away. Otherwise, after a few hours, it will wither, and the leaves will lose their crispness.
2. Cut the crab sticks into cubes, strips, rings … The method of cutting is not important.
3. Wash and dry the avocado with a tissue. With a knife, cut it in half in a circle, bringing the knife to the bone. Divide the two halves of the fruit in half and remove the pit. Cut the pulp directly into the peel into medium-sized cubes. Then use a spoon to pry the pulp and separate it from the rind.
Choose ripe avocados for salad. There should be no damage or stains on the fruit. Press down on the fruit. At this point, a depression must first remain, which then will take its previous shape. If the hollow remains after pressing, it means that the fruit is overripe. If it is not possible to press, the fruit is not ripe. If you shake an avocado, you can hear the pounding of a stone.
4. Place all prepared foods in a deep bowl.
5. Season salad with avocado, Chinese cabbage and crab sticks with salt and olive oil. Stir the food, chill the salad in the refrigerator and serve it to the table. For serving, use avocado halves, which are filled with salad.
