Spoon into small bowls and garnish with coriander. Serve with rice, a fresh green salad and lime wedges, if you like.
Cook’s Tips
You can often buy crab meat in 100g tubs. You can also buy ready-prepared dressed crab, which has a higher proportion of brown meat. Cooked prawns would be a good alternative to crab and it’s also delicious served with warm sourdough bread instead of rice.
