Zesty herb and chilli crab salad with crostini recipe

Preheat the grill to medium. For the crostini, place half the baquette slices on a large baking tray, season and brush all over with olive oil. Grill for about 1 minute each side, until golden. Set aside on a wire rack to cool and repeat with the remaining baquette.

In a bowl, mix together 75 ml oil, the lemon juice, fresh herbs and chopped red chilli. Season to taste and set aside to infuse for minutes.

Put the crabmeat into a large bowl and gradually mix in just over half of the herb mixture to bind. Season to taste.

Place the ring mould or pastry cutter on a plate. Press in some of the crab mix, then remove the ring. Repeat to make six starters.

To serve, top each with a small pile of salad leaves. Garnish with the sliced chilli, drizzle around the remaining herb oil and serve with the crostini and lemon wedges to squeeze over.
