Method

Slice the avocados in half, remove the seeds, and scoop out the flesh. Dice coarsely and sprinkle with a few drops of the lime juice. Reserve the avocado shells.

Slice the mushrooms thin and put them to marinate in the lime juice. If you are using prawns or crayfish tails, slice them in half lengthwise. Pick over the crabmeat, discarding any bits of shell and shredding the meat with you
