Cooking method

Step 1:

Gather the ingredients. Peel the eggs.
Step 2:

Cut a cross in the top of each tomato, keeping it attached at the stem end. Scoop out the insides (they make a wonderful tomato sauce).
Step 3:

Cut the crab sticks into small dice and put them in a bowl.
Step 4:

Grate the cheese on the coarse side of a box grater and add it to the crab sticks in the bowl.
Step 5:

Grate the eggs and add them to the bowl too.
Step 6:

Dress with mayonnaise and season to taste (stir in the pressed garlic here). Mix well.
Step 7:

Fill the tomatoes with the mixture.
Step 8:

If the "tulips" get smudged, wipe them with a napkin.
Step 9:

Arrange the "bouquet": lay down the green onion and set the tomatoes on top.
Step 10:

Arrange them so it looks pretty.
Step 11:

Decorate the "meadow" with cucumber rounds.
Step 12:

Let it rest a little.
Step 13:

Done!
