Provided by Giada De Laurentiis

Categories     appetizer

Time 1h20m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 21

Vegetable oil cooking spray
1 cup whole milk, at room temperature
3/4 cup all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons butter, melted, cooled
1 teaspoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon fine salt
1/8 teaspoon ground ginger
2 large eggs, at room temperature
1 medium orange, zested
1 lime, zested
3 tablespoons fresh orange juice
1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
1 tablespoon creme fraiche
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/3 cup safflower oil
1 pound fresh lump crabmeat, patted dry, cubed if large
1 cup chopped radicchio or 1 cup chopped red Belgian endive
4 green onions, chopped
1 large avocado, halved, pitted, peeled, diced
One 1-pound mango, peeled, seeded, diced

Steps:

  • For the popovers: Position a rack in the center of the oven and preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Spray a 6-count popover pan, six 1 cup ceramic souffle dishes, glass custard cups, or muffin cups with vegetable oil cooking spray.
  • In a blender, combine the milk, flour, butter, sugar, salt, ginger and eggs and blend until smooth. Scrape down the sides and blend until the batter is very smooth. Divide the batter equally among the prepared dishes, about 1/3 cup each.
  • Bake the popovers without opening the oven door, until puffed and deep brown, 35 to 40 minutes.
  • For the salad: While the popovers bake, in a large bowl, combine the orange and lime zest, orange and lime juices, creme fraiche, salt and pepper. Gradually whisk in the oil. Add the crabmeat, radicchio, onions, avocado and mango. Toss until combined.
  • When the popovers are baked through, remove the popovers from the oven. Twist each out of its dish and cool on a wire rack.
  • Place the popovers on a platter. Using a serrated knife, remove the tops of the popovers. Using a large spoon, fill each popover with the salad, mounding in the center. Serve immediately.

Provided by Daisy Martinez

Categories     main-dish

Time 25m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 lime, zest finely grated, lime cut in 1/2
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons chopped cilantro leaves
1/2 mango, peeled and cut into 1/4-inch dice (about 1 cup)
1/3 cup diced (1/4-inch) red bell peppers
1/3 cup diced (1/4-inch) red onion
1/2 jalapeno, stemmed and cut into small dice (about 2 tablespoons)

3 Hass avocados

Steps:

  • Squeeze the juice from 1 half of the lime into a bowl. Add the olive oil and cilantro and whisk well. Add the mango, red pepper, onion, jalapeno, and lime zest and toss to coat. Gently stir in the crabmeat to keep it from breaking up. Set aside while preparing the avocados.
  • Cut the avocados in half and remove pit. Squeeze the remaining lime half over the avocado flesh, using the lime half to spread it evenly, in order to keep them from turning black.

This recipe is fantastic! So much flavor and so fresh. Such a beautiful presentation! I got this recipe from Simply Recipes and it a family favorite. I did not include the 1-2 hours to chill the salad prep time.

Categories     < 30 Mins

Time 23m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
1 ripe mango, peeled, pitted and diced
1/4 cup water
1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
salt & freshly ground black pepper
1 lb of fresh lump dungeness crabmeat, picked clean
1 1/2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lime juice
3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon cilantro leaf, finely chopped
2 teaspoons mint leaves, finely chopped
1 tablespoon minced shallots or 1 tablespoon purple onion
1 medium sized mango, peeled, pitted, and diced
1 firm but ripe avocado, pitted, peeled, and diced
Tabasco sauce
salt & freshly ground black pepper
ruby red grapefruit section, peeled

Steps:

  • Sauce directions:.
  • Heat the olive oil in a small pan over medium heat. Add the mango, season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring, for about 3 minutes until the fruit is very tender. Add water, bring to a boil and remove from heat. Stir in lemon juice. Pour the mixture into a blender and purée until smooth. Chill.
  • Alternatively, if you are pressed for time, put all of the sauce ingredients into a blender and purée.
  • Crab salad directions:.
  • 1 In a bowl add the crab meat, 2 tsp of the cilantro, 1 tsp of the mint, the chopped shallot, a Tbsp of lime juice, 2 Tbsp of olive oil, 10 drops of Tabasco sauce, and salt and pepper to taste. Mix carefully with a fork, to avoid breaking up the larger lumps of crab meat. Set aside.
  • 2 In a separate bowl add the mango, avocado, 1 Tbsp olive oil, 1/2 Tbsp of lime juice, the remaining cilantro and mint leaves, 10 drops of Tabasco, and salt and pepper to taste. Mix gently with a spoon, taking care not to mush the avocado pieces.
  • 3 Spoon some mango avocado mixture on to a chilled plate, gently mound some crab mixture over it. Garnish with cilantro leaves. For a tasty added touch if you have them, arrange peeled sections of sweet ruby red grapefruit around the salads. The grapefruit provides a flavorful complement to the crab salad.
  • Alternatively you can use small tureens or desert bowls for individual molds, line the mold with plastic wrap, then layer the crab mixture and the mango avocado mixture. Chill in the refrigerator for 1 to 2 hours. When you are ready to serve, gently remove the salads from the molds onto individual plates. Serve the sauce on the side.

Tips:

  • Choose ripe avocados that are slightly firm to the touch. Avocados that are too soft may be overripe and mushy, while avocados that are too hard may not be ripe enough.
  • To easily halve and pit an avocado, use a sharp knife to cut it lengthwise around the pit. Then, twist the two halves apart and remove the pit with a spoon.
  • If you don't have fresh crab meat, you can use canned crab meat instead. Just be sure to drain the crab meat well before using it.
  • For a more flavorful salad, use a variety of mangoes, such as Ataulfo, Kent, or Tommy Atkins.
  • If you don't have fresh mint, you can use dried mint instead. Just use about 1/4 of the amount of dried mint that you would use fresh mint.
  • Serve the avocado stuffed with crab and mango salad immediately, or chill it for up to 2 hours before serving.

Conclusion:

Avocado stuffed with crab and mango salad is a delicious and refreshing appetizer or light lunch. It's easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences.
