Pickled ginger has a wonderful affinity with fish, as anyone who has tried sushi will know. You can now buy in supermarkets - it is usually found close to the sushi ingredients. Ingredients:
400 g white crab meat |
1 tablespoon peanut oil |
1 red chile, seeded and chopped |
1 tablespoon roughly chopped pickled ginger |
lime, juice and zest of |
50 g coriander, roughly chopped |
1 red chicory, bulb |
1 small chaertais melon, seeded, peeled and sliced |
salt & freshly ground black pepper |
Directions:
1. In a large bowl, toss the crabmeat, oil, chilli, pickled ginger, lime zest and juice and coriander together and season to taste.
2. Arranger 3 or 4 leaves of chicory on each serving plate, place the slices of melon between the leaves and pile the crabmeat in the centre. Garnish with a sprig of fresh coriander and serve with lime wedges to squeeze over.
