Ingredients

  • 1 green apple, cored and roughly chopped but not peeled

  • 1 avocado, stoned and peeled, flesh chopped roughly

  • 120g good quality fresh crab meat

  • 1 lime

  • 1 thumb of ginger

  • extra virgin olive oil

  • salt and black pepper

  • a few slices of brown soda bread

  • a few coriander leaves for garnish

Method

  1. In a small bowl mix the crab meat with a little salt and pepper and squeeze over the juice of one lime.

  2. Peel a small thumb of ginger (using a teaspoon to grate away the skin is the best method) and grate finely into the crab and lime juice mixture.

  3. Gently mix together with a fork, cover with a plate, cloth or wax paper and place in the fridge for a half hour or so.

  4. To assemble, very gently mix the marinated crab with the diced apple and avocado, being careful not to break up the avocado too much. Place the mixture on top of a nice thick slice of brown soda bread, drizzle with olive oil, season lightly and garnish with a few leaves of fresh coriander.
