Categories     Shellfish     Appetizer

Yield 30

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 can (320 g) frozen salad crab, defrosted
½ cup (125 mL) mayonnaise, preferably olive-oil variety
½ tsp (2 mL) lemon zest
2 pinches of cayenne
1 large sweet red pepper
1 green onion, minced
3 Belgian endives
1 firm-but-ripe avocado
Several stems of fresh coriander, chopped

Steps:

  • 1. Drain crab; squeeze dry. Stir mayonnaise with zest and cayenne in a small bowl. Seed pepper and finely dice ¼ cup (50 mL); set remainder aside for garnish. Add diced pepper to mayonnaise mixture along with crab and green onion. Stir gently; mixture can be covered and promptly refrigerated for up to a day. 2. Near to serving time, separate endives into individual spears, about 30 in total. (Use endive hearts in tossed salad.) Peel avocado and dice half. Slice remainder into numerous thin lengths; slice reserved red pepper into thin slices. 3. Stir diced avocado into crab mixture. Fill white areas of spears, dividing equally. Do not overfill to keep from being messy to eat. Garnish with a piece of avocado and a pepper slice. Sprinkle some of the spears with coriander.

I'm not a fan of seafood, but I loved this salad! The crab flavor is very mild, and the other ingredients really shine through.

I'm allergic to avocado, so I substituted it with cucumber. It turned out great!

This salad is a bit too spicy for my taste. I think I'll use less cayenne pepper next time.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my crab salad turned out really bland. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what I did wrong.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover crab meat. I always have some in the freezer, and this is a delicious way to use it.

This crab salad was a hit at my last party! The combination of sweet peppers, avocado, and endive was a refreshing change from the usual crab salad recipes. I will definitely be making this again.
