Boil the macaroni in salted water and boil the eggs.

Wash the cabbage properly and chop it into thin pieces.

Peel the cucumber, divide it into two, remove the seeds and chop it into equal pieces.

Peel the carrots, wash and cut it into pieces.

Wash and cut the remaining vegetables.

Wash and cut the apple into small pieces. The apple is optional and gives the salad a sweet and crunchier texture.

In a large bowl, combine all the ingredients together except the egg and mayonnaise or salad cream. Place it in a refrigerator to prevent it from going sour.

To serve, scoop out a portion of the salad and add either mayonnaise or salad cream to it.

Top it up with the boiled egg and some chopped lettuce.

Enjoy.
