CHIPOTLE CRAB TOSTADAS

A light recipe with fresh crabmeat, zingy lime and smoky chipotle.

SERVES 2
15 MINS

These tostadas are topped with light and fresh crab meat, with subtle smoky chipotle and zesty lime. We oven bake our tostadas using our mini tortillas, a no faff shortcut for the crunchy bases.

Ingredients

Capsicana Mini Tortilla Wraps

100g crab meat (white or mixed) double up for 4 servings

1 tbsp Capsicana Burrito Tinga Cooking Paste

1 tbsp mayonnaise 

1 lime

Fresh parsley, chopped

Cooking oil

Pink pickled onions, sliced

Fresh tomato salsa

Sea salt

Method

  1. Preheat your oven to 180C/170 fan assisted. 
  2. Line a baking sheet with non-stick parchment and set aside. To make our tostada bases we cut the wraps into smaller bitesize rounds, but this isn’t necessary! 
  3. Brush each side of the tortillas with a coating of cooking oil and sprinkle with salt. Lay each tortilla onto the baking sheet and cook for 5-10 minutes until nicely golden and crispy. Careful not to over cook as these can brown quite quickly.
  4. Once crisp, remove from the oven and leave to cool.
  5. In a small bowl mix the mayonnaise, cooking paste and crab together, then add a small squeeze of lime and a pinch of salt. This is your chipotle crab mix.
  6. Top the crispy tostada bases with the crab mix and dress generously with herbs, fresh tomato salsa and a few pink pickled onions.
  7. Enjoy!
