CRAB STUFFED STEAK WITH A BEARNAISE SAUCE
I came up with this one the other week as I had bought some king crab legs from the supermarket as they had them not only on special but actually in stock. They were of a medium size no where near the size of the ones I bought when I made my stuffed Ostrich loin as I was only stuffing 2 steaks this time. I did fill them quite full and I bought very thick cut steaks I would guess they would have been between 250-300g a piece. I say that as I do not know the exact weight of them as silly me took them out of the pack and threw it away and forgot to look at the weight to write down as I usually do so I have it for when I post. I guess just judge from the photo as to what you would need, mine was the smaller of the 2 steaks my husbands was thicker. I also used a sachet of bearnaise sauce to make the recipe quicker, you can make your own if you prefer.

- Add parsley, pepper and crab, stir to combine, remove and set to one side.
- Steaks.
- Cut steak horizontally through the middle being careful not cut all the way through. Open steak out so it is butterflied, take a meat mallet and pound to flaten slightly.
- Divide stuffing mix between the 2 steaks, placing it on one half of the steak, fold the remaining half over the top.
- Spread half a teaspoon of horseradish over the top of each steak, wrap 2 bacon rashers around each one to secure.
- Cook steaks in a hot pan 2 minutes each side to brown, Place steaks in oven proof dish and cook in a pre-heated oven of 180 degrees Celsius for 15-20 minutes depending on how thick they are for a nice pink centre.
- Sauce.
- Pour bearnaise into a saucepan, add 200ml of milk whisk to combine, heat stirring until sauce starts to thicken.
- Add sauce, juice, wine, vinegar, Tabasco, cream and herbs, cooking stirring until mixture thickens. Sauce can be left on a warm stove to keep warm, just stir occasionally.
- Asparagus.
- Trim ends of asparagus, take 5 spears and wrap a slice of bacon around to secure, repeat with remaining asparagus and bacon.
- Place in an oiled oven proof dish and cook for 10 minutes. They are cooked at the same temp as the steak so I just pop them in when the steaks have 10 more minutes to go.
- To Serve: I served mine over mash, topped with the steak, place asparagus on top and drizzle with sauce.

Tips:
- Select High-Quality Artichoke: Choose fresh, firm artichokes with tightly closed leaves and a deep green color. Avoid any with brown spots or blemishes.
- Properly Clean the Artichokes: Before cooking, trim the artichoke stems and remove the tough outer leaves. Cut off the top third of the artichoke and scoop out the choke (fuzzy center) using a spoon.
- Blanch the Artichokes: Blanching the artichokes in boiling salted water for a few minutes helps tenderize them and reduces the bitterness. This step is essential for stuffed artichokes.
- Prepare the Crab Meat: If using fresh crab meat, remove any shells or cartilage. Flake the crab meat into small pieces for even distribution in the stuffing.
- Make a Flavorful Stuffing: Combine cooked crab meat with bread crumbs, herbs, spices, and a binder like mayonnaise or cream cheese. The stuffing should be moist but not too wet.
- Stuff the Artichokes: Carefully spoon the stuffing into the center of each blanched artichoke. Make sure to fill the artichokes but not overstuff them, as the stuffing will expand during cooking.
- Bake or Steam the Stuffed Artichokes: You can bake the stuffed artichokes in a preheated oven or steam them in a steamer basket over boiling water. Both methods take about 20-30 minutes, or until the artichokes are tender and the stuffing is heated through.
- Serve with Dipping Sauce: Stuffed artichokes are often served with a dipping sauce, such as melted butter, aioli, or a simple vinaigrette. This adds extra flavor and richness to the dish.
Conclusion:
Crab meat stuffed artichoke salad is a delicious and visually appealing dish that combines the delicate flavor of artichokes with the sweet taste of crab meat. It's perfect for special occasions or as a gourmet appetizer. With careful preparation and attention to detail, you can create this impressive dish that is sure to impress your guests.
