These deviled eggs are built around real crab in the filling instead of just a garnish on top, which makes them richer, softer and a little more festive.

Serves: 6 people

Preparation time: 25 min

Ingredients

Eggs – 6 large
White crab meat – 120 g
Mayonnaise – 2 1/2 tbsp
Dijon mustard – 1 tsp
Lemon juice – 2 tsp
Chives – 1 tbsp, finely chopped
Celery – 1 tbsp, very finely chopped
Salt – to taste
Black pepper – to taste
Paprika – 1 pinch

Method

STEP 1
Check the crab carefully for any shell fragments and pat it dry with kitchen paper so the filling does not become watery.
STEP 2
Mash the yolks with mayonnaise, mustard and lemon juice until smooth. Fold in the celery and chives, then gently add the crab so you keep some visible flakes rather than mashing everything into a paste.
STEP 3
Fill the egg whites with the mixture and chill them for 20 to 30 minutes so the flavours settle. Dust lightly with paprika just before they go to the table.
