Creole Crab Stuffed Avocados image

Recipe from www.letscookfrench.com and posted here for ZWT5. NOTE: after making this recipe, I have made some edits to the original recipe (it had too much mayo and it didn't give enough direction for the avocados).

Time 20m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 avocados, not overly ripe
2 tablespoons rice
10 crab sticks, chopped (I actually used canned crab)
2 tablespoons chopped tomatoes
2 -3 tablespoons mayonnaise
1 teaspoon mustard
3 drops Tabasco sauce
1 tablespoon ketchup
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 tablespoon finely chopped herbs (chives, thyme, basil or whatever you like)
salt & pepper

Steps:

  • Steam the rice and let it cool.
  • In a small bowl, mix mayonnaise, mustard, salt & pepper, lemon juice, ketchup and tabasco.
  • Cut the avocados in half and scoop out the inside, leaving a small amount all around the skin to keep it sturdy. Set aside the skins.
  • Dice the avocado.
  • Sitr together the crab, mayonnaise mixture and the cooled rice. Then fold in the avocado and tomatoes. Taste the mixture and add any additional salt/pepper or seasoning that you like.
  • Fill each avocado half with the prepared mixture, sprinkle with chopped herbs and refrigerate until serving.
