Steps:
- Place the crab in a bowl, add the finely chopped spring onions, chilli, a good squeeze of lime juice and the chopped coriander, stir together and season to taste.
- Peel and cube the mango and avocado, mix with the torn mint and rocket leaves. Mix together the cordial and olive oil, add a squeeze of lime juice and toss into the salad.
- To make the melba toast curls, toast the bread on both sides, remove the crusts and cut each piece in half horizontally. Cut into 4 triangles and toast until lightly golden.
- To serve, use a metal ring to hold the salad in a circle on a plate, top with a layer of the crab mix, carefully lift the ring off and serve garnished with the melba toasts or simply serve spooned onto a plate in the two layers.
CRAB AND APPLE SALAD WITH LEMON DRESSING
A Donna Hay recipe from our Sunday Herald. Russ wanted this saved so we can make it next year when we get back to crab country! The recipe gives no prep time so I'm guessing and suggests it feeds 8-I'd have thought 4 would be more like it so that's what I'm suggesting. I have also halved the amount of dill as I love it but think a half cup would be too much. Remember an Aussie teaspoon contains 4 teaspoons!

Steps:
- To make the crisps, preheat the oven to 425 degrees. In a small bowl, mix together the flour, sugar and cumin seeds. Add the vinegar, butter and water and mix thoroughly, but do not overmix.
- Working in batches and using a pastry brush, dab very thin 2-inch discs of batter onto a nonstick baking sheet. Bake until golden, 3 to 5 minutes. Cool on wire racks.
- To make the crab salad, break up the lumps with your fingers, removing any shell or cartilage but leaving the crab as intact as possible. Refrigerate. In a blender, combine the tomatoes, shallots, garlic, lemon juice, oil, vinegar and basil and blend until smooth. Season to taste.
- Slowly stir the tomato sauce into the crab meat. Coat the crab, but do not soak it. Place 3 scoops of crab salad on each of 6 plates. Place a cumin crisp between each scoop. Garnish with the mache and the mangoes.
