The recipe
Metric, with cups in brackets- 450g lump crab meat
- 120g (½ cup) mayonnaiseI use one made with avocado oil; start with less
- A big bunch of chives, finely chopped20 to 40g, depending how much you love them
- ½ to 1 tsp sea salt, to taste
- ¼ tsp black pepper
- Seed crackers, to serve
- Optional extras
- 1 ripe avocado, sliced, for the crackers
- 1 to 2 tbsp finely chopped shallot
- 1 to 2 tbsp chopped dill or parsley
- A pinch of smoked paprika
In a large bowl, mix the mayo, chives, salt and pepper.
Add the crab last, folding gently so you keep the lovely lumps intact.
Taste and adjust. It should be lightly creamy, not heavy.
Pile onto seed crackers and serve.
My Nourish3 Method is simple: protein, healthy fat and fibre whenever you eat. Crab brings the protein and seed crackers the fibre. For healthy fat, lay a few slices of avocado on each cracker before adding the crab. Serve with crunchy crudités like cucumber, radish and carrot for even more fibre.
