About this recipe

Easy crab soldiers are a great party food. This simple recipe of thick slices of sourdough topped with a creamy crab mixture can be your next New Year’s starter or the perfect finger food for your Easter feast.

Ingredients

10 slices of sourdough or baguette bread (2½ -3 cm thick) crust removed
200 grams of white crabmeat
olive oil
1½ tablespoon horseradish
¼ cup Kewpie mayonnaise
1½ tablespoon hot chilli sauce
1 teaspoon lemon juice
cracked pepper
spring onion to garnish

Notes from Rouba

If the bread is doughy, be generous when drizzling the olive oil.
If the only crab meat available is preserved in vinegar, simply wash it under cold running water and drain.
Use good quality mayonnaise – for this recipe, I’m suggesting kewpie.

Method

Step 1.

Drizzle the bread with olive oil. Toast or griddle the sourdough on both sides. Once golden, grate parmesan cheese on one side of the bread.

Step 2.

Mix the crabmeat, horseradish, mayonnaise, chilli sauce, and lemon juice. Spoon the mixture onto the toasted bread, then top each with spring onion. Season with cracked pepper and a drizzle of olive oil.

Serve while the sourdough is still crisp.
