Steps:
- Heat the olive oil in a heavy-bottomed frying pan. Add the fennel seeds, chilli, shallots, parsley stalks, lemon zest and seasoning, and fry for about 5 mins, or until softened and aromatic. Add the tomato purée, cook for a couple of mins, then deglaze with the vermouth. Add half the crabmeat, stir to create a thick sauce, then remove from the heat while you cook the pasta.
- Bring a large pan of salted water to the boil and cook the pasta until al dente. With 3 mins remaining, add the asparagus, then use a slotted spoon to transfer the pasta and asparagus to the crab pan. Put the crab pan back on the heat, add a couple of spoonfuls of pasta water to loosen and toss together, coating the pasta in the sauce. Add the rest of the crabmeat, crème fraîche and lemon juice, and warm through. Divide between plates and garnish with parsley, chives and hazelnuts.

Steps:
- Make the vinaigrette: whisk together the lime juice, vinegar, lime zest, ginger, and honey in a bowl; whisk in the oils.
- Season to taste with salt and pepper; set aside.
- Bring a pot of water to a boil and cook asparagus until just tender, about 5 minutes.

- When the asparagus are cold, drain and toss them with 3 tablespoons of the vinaigrette; set aside.
- Toss the crabmeat with 3 tablespoons of the vinaigrette; set aside.
- In a big bowl, toss the Bibb lettuce leaves with 3 tablespoons of the vinaigrette.
- Plate the salad: divide the dressed Bibb lettuce leaves among 4 large chilled plates.
- Place an avocado half on top of the lettuce on each plate and drizzle the avocado with a little vinaigrette.
- Arrange a bundle of dressed asparagus next to the avocado half; divide the dressed crabmeat among the plates, draping it over the avocado and asparagus.
- Garnish with the grapefruit sections and serve.
- Serving suggestions: because the texture of this salad is soft, serve with crisp crackers or toasted bruschetta; also good beverage choice would be a Mimosa-orange juice and champagne.
