Crab and avocado tuile

Preparation

the wine to go with it!!

A sweet, fruity Alsace white….

For us, the cuvée de l’Archer from Laurence and Philippe Greiner

  1. Step 1

    Make the tuiles:

    Mix the eggs and the milk, add the melted butter and the flour.

    Chill this batter.

  3. Step 3

    Preheat the oven to 180 °C.

    When your oven is hot, make circles with the tuile batter on a sheet of baking paper. Use the back of a spoon to shape them.

    Bake for 8 minutes.

    As soon as they come out, lay them over cleaned glass bottles so they take on a “tuile-taco” shape.

    Once they’ve roughly taken shape, put them back in the oven for 5 minutes. Hold their shape by propping them with buttered pastry rings, or whatever you have that can hold the tuiles and withstand 180 °C.

  4. Step 4

    Make the filling.

    Remove the tomato’s skin with a special tomato peeler. Cut it into dice.

    Scoop the flesh from the avocados and squeeze the juice of the pressed lemon over them.

    Mix the crab meat with the avocados and the tomato.

    Fill the tuiles and enjoy…. You’ve earned it! It had to be a Sunday to have all this time ^^.
