Tangy Crab Salad

Crabmeat is light, subtle in taste and always popular. This recipe enhances the virtues of the crab in a really refreshing and delicious way.

Much of the work can be done ahead of time; the crabmeat should be tossed with the tasty Thai dressing at the last minute. Such a salad is ideal as a light lunch or as a delectable starter for any meal. And no leftovers here. A large 1.4kg (3 lb) crab will yield about 350g (12 oz) picked crabmeat.
