4. Peel the crab sticks from the film and cut into small cubes.

8. Place a forming ring on a flat dish or plate and lay out the crab sticks in the first layer.
9. Grease a layer of crab sticks with mayonnaise.

13. Spread the remaining grated cheese on top.
14. Carefully remove the forming ring.
15. Place the grapefruit slices on the cheese layer, alternating them with fresh parsley leaves.
