Ingredients
 

  • 1 Pound Alsum purple creamer potatoes
  • 250 Gram Crab meat imitation, frozen, canned, or fresh (drained weight)
  • 2 Tablespoons Yellow pepper finely diced
  • 2 Tablespoons Fresh chives finely sliced
  • 2 Tablespoons Mayonnaise
  • 1 Teaspoon Lemon juice
  • ¼ Teaspoon Hot pepper sauce
  • Fresh chive springs & lemon slice to garnish
  • Old bay or similar seasoned salt to garnish

Instructions

  • In a large saucepan, cover potatoes with water. Boil for 12-15 minutes, until potatoes are easily pierced with a sharp knife. Drain and cool to handle.
  • Meanwhile, prepare filling. In a mixing bowl combine crab meat, peppers, chives, mayonnaise, lemon juice and pepper sauce. Do not overmix to keep mixture light.
  • Cut each potato in half and with a small teaspoon carefully scoop out a hollow in each half.
  • Evenly fill potato halves with crab mixture and garnish with lemon rind, chive springs and a pinch of seasoned salt, if desired.
