  1. Step 1:

    Step 1.

    How to make a salad with Peking cabbage, ham and cucumber? Prepare the products. Take Chinese cabbage of a small size, you will need its third part to prepare the salad. Choose high-quality ham from a reliable manufacturer. And finally, cucumbers. At any time of the year, I recommend buying cucumbers of small size with pimples — such cucumbers are the most fragrant.

  2. Step 2:

    Step 2.

    Rinse the salad well, remove and discard the top 1-2 leaves — the main dirt accumulates on them. Cut the cabbage into thin strips. In the absence of such a salad, it is quite possible to replace it with any leafy or finely pumped salad. And you can use ordinary white cabbage, best of all, of course, young.

  3. Step 3:

    Step 3.

    Wash the cucumbers well. Then dry them. Cut off the tips and cut the cucumbers into small cubes. Be sure to try the cucumber, whether it is bitter — such a fruit will spoil the taste of the salad.

  4. Step 4:

    Step 4.

    Cut the ham into small cubes. It is quite possible to replace ham with boiled or boiled-smoked sausage, as well as boiled or fried chicken and meat.

  5. Step 5:

    Step 5.

    Boil hard boiled eggs. Cool, peel and cut into small cubes.

  6. Step 6:

    Step 6.

    Mix all the chopped ingredients, add salt to taste, given that the ham is quite salty, and mayonnaise contains a lot of salt. I recommend using my own homemade mayonnaise. It is quite possible to replace mayonnaise with sour cream of any fat content or to fill the salad with light yogurt without additives, for example, Greek.

  7. Step 7:

    Step 7.

    Serve the salad on the table in a common salad bowl or in portion creamers. Bon appetit!

How to cook hard-boiled eggs? So that the eggs do not crack when cooking, put them in cold water and put them to cook on a small fire. Boil the eggs for 9 minutes after boiling, then pour cold water and cool. From a sharp temperature drop, the shell will be better cleaned.

The salad will look nice and neat if you cut all the ingredients into pieces of the same size and shape (for example, cubes).

It is better to prepare mayonnaise yourself. It will be tastier and healthier. See here interesting recipes for homemade mayonnaise.
Also, as a dressing, you can use not only mayonnaise, but also sour cream or natural yogurt. They can be taken separately or mixed with mayonnaise in any proportion to your taste - this will reduce the calorie content of the dish.
