Tomatoes W/Crab & Camembert (5 Min Microwave & Done!) image

This recipe from the *Microwave* cookbook of the Australian Womens Weekly cookbook series opened my eyes & focused them on really spec things to create easily in my microwave. I'm into easy, fast, versatile + impressive & see this recipe as a prime example. I have not made this, but think it would make a great Starter or Brunch/Lunch/Buffet item. I hope you'll agree & give it a try. *Enjoy* ! *EDITED TO ADD* In response to reviewer comments, I have included 1 tsp of Old Bay Seasoning as an opt add to this recipe.

Time 20m

Yield 6 Stuffed Tomatoes, 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

6 tomatoes (med to lrg size)
4 ounces camembert cheese (See note at end of prep)
6 ounces canned crabmeat (drained & cleaned of debris)
1 tablespoon sour cream
1 tablespoon lemon juice
2 green onions (chopped)
1 teaspoon capers (chopped)
3/4 cup cooked rice
2 tablespoons fresh parsley (chopped)
1 teaspoon Old Bay Seasoning (optional)

Steps:

  • Cut a slice from the top of ea tomato. Scoop out seeds & pulp w/a tsp & reserve for another use. Set tomatoes aside.
  • W/a sharp knife, remove rind from cheese & chop cheese finely into a mixing bowl. Add remaining ingredients + Old Bay seasoning (if using) & mix to combine.
  • Spoon crab mixture into tomato shells (pack as needed for tomato size). Place tomatoes in shallow microwave-safe dish, cook on HIGH for 5 minutes & serve immediately.
  • NOTE: While the recipe calls for 4 oz of the Camembert cheese, I'd prob use 6 oz. The way I see it, can more Camembert cheese ever be wrong? NOT!

I would have liked the crab to be a bit more flavorful.

The sauce was a little too thin for my taste, so I added a bit of cornstarch to thicken it up.

I didn't have any fresh tomatoes on hand, so I used canned tomatoes instead. It still turned out great!
