Makes 24 crostini

Ingredients:

1 thin French baguette 2 tbsp olive oil 200-250g fresh white crab meat 1 large red chilli, deseeded and finely chopped 2cm piece fresh ginger, peeled and finely grated 4 spring onions, finely chopped 2 tbsp chopped fresh coriander Grated zest and juice of 1 lime Salt and freshly ground black pepper

Method:

Preheat the grill to the highest setting. Cut the baguette into thin slices (they should be no thicker than 1cm each). Spread them out on a baking sheet and brush all over with a little olive oil. Toast on both sides until golden.

Mix all of the remaining ingredients together and set aside for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavours to mingle. Check the seasoning and spoon a little of the spiced crab mixture onto each slice of toasted bread.
