Japanese Kani and Mango Salad

Japanese Kani and Mango Salad....Another salad I enjoyed and didn't have a hard time eating. Mona is my house guest for the weekend. I told her I don't eat at night except salad but I made her a club sandwich, well... half a sandwich hehehe because I ate the other half and she made her own BLT.


I also prepared a small plate of salad for her. She liked my Japanese Salad very much!!!! As usual, I surfed the net for a good and simple Japanese dressing and came up with my own version. I don't like the creamy mayo based dressing, so I opted for the one you can pour or perhaps even use a spritzer.


I had a BIG plate and not a bite left.


Japanese Kani and Mango Salad - 1 serving


50 grams Green Lollo lettuce

mango, cubed

4 pieces kani sticks

cucumber, shredded


Dressing (I only used 1 T. of the dressing and kept the rest in the chiller.)


1 T. Kikkoman soy sauce

2 T. Del Monte Cane vinegar

1 t. sugar

few dashes of sesame oil


So far, so good! I have been surviving my Salad only for dinner menu! I just realized, I like my home made dressings better than the Kraft store bought ones. There are still a lot of ways I can trim and dress my greens. So, it is exciting for me to discover and experiment. I wonder what I am going to make tomorrow night?

  1. Wow, this blog is so informative. It’s great to see Indian cuisine getting the spotlight it deserves, especially when explained with such clarity. If you're ever in Melbourne’s west, drop by our indian restaurant in werribee for a taste.
