Lettuce Salad with Egg, Sweet Corn & Crabsticks #OTH

For the reason of healthy delicious meal that I can can prepare in under 15 minutes. As a mother of two, I am always on the go and  I know that it's not always easy to find time to cook a long, elaborate dinner. Most of the time, I would rather dine outside near the food court at our house after fetching Annabelle from Aunty Joyce’s house and Issac from school.

For both the children, I preferred them to have meals with rice, so that they would be more full instead of soup noodles. For myself, I would want something simple as dinner, I do not want something heavy and I will be getting ‘fatter’ due to late and heavy dinner everyday.

I made this relatively simple salad last week, but I don’t make my own salad dressing, then I do buy a bottle of Kewpie Roasted Sesame and Kewpie Sesame Dressing each. I guess there is no rule as to what you can put in your salad. For this salad, I just put together a few things which I like eating such as sweet corn, crab sticks, sausages and hard boiled eggs! If you like, poached egg would be great too!

Preparation time: 5 minutes
Cooking time: 5 minutes
Serves: 2

Ingredients:
1/2 can of sweet corn (you can also use frozen sweet corn)
2 eggs
2 pieces of chicken Frankfurt sausages (I used the frozen)
2-3 lettuce leaves, thinly sliced
4 pieces of crabsticks filament (I used the frozen)
Salt and pepper, to taste
Kewpie Roasted Sesame Salad Dressing

Preparation:
1. Boil the water, and soaked the chicken Frankfurt sausages and leave for a few minutes to defrost. Drain water and place in a bowl, and cut into 1 inch size. The same goes to the crabsticks filaments as well, and set aside.

2. At the same time, you can cook your poached or boiled egg. To poach an egg, fill a frying pan with 4cm barely simmering water. Break each egg into a cup and lower into the water. Cook for approximately 2 minutes (you will know it's cooked when the egg white has set). Use a slotted spoon to remove.

3. If using frozen sweet corn, then pour boiling water over the sweet corn and leave for a few minutes to defrost. Drain water and place in a bowl with the butter. Mix well.

4. Toss the lettuce with olive oil, and season with salt and pepper.

5. To assemble, place lettuce, followed by sweet corn, chicken Frankfurt sausages, crabsticks filaments and finally top with poached egg or hard boiled egg. Drizzle with some salad dressing will do.

Issac loves the salad I made ^^
