Cooking instructions
Instructions for 2 [for 3] [for 4] portion recipe.
Preheat the oven to 220°C/ 200°C (fan)/ gas 7
Chop your potatoes into small bite-sized pieces
Add the chopped potatoes to a large heat-proof bowl covered with cling film
Put the bowl in the microwave for 6-8 min or until slightly tender

Meanwhile, slice half your green chilli[es] into rounds and finely dice the remaining chilli[es]
Peel and slice your shallot[s] finely
Roll your lime[s] with your hand on a hard surface (to release more juice) and cut into wedges
Combine the juice of half the lime and 1 tsp [1 1/2 tsp] [2 tsp] sugar with the chilli rounds and sliced shallot – this is your quick-pickled chilli

Once the potatoes are slightly tender, transfer them to a baking paper-lined baking tray with a drizzle of olive oil and a pinch of salt
Put the tray in the oven for an initial 10 min

Cut your cucumber into thin batons, then dice finely
Chop your tomato[es] finely
Chop your coriander roughly, including the stalks (save some leaves for a garnish!)

Combine your crab meat with the diced cucumber, chopped tomato and chopped coriander
Add the diced chilli (can't handle the heat? Go easy!), and a generous squeeze of lime juice
Add your mayo with a generous pinch of salt and pepper and give everything a good mix up – this is your crab aguachile

Slice your ciabatta[s] in half
Once the potatoes have had an initial 10 min, add the sliced ciabatta to the tray with a generous drizzle of olive oil and a pinch of salt
Tip: Cooking for 3 or more? Use 2 trays!
Return the tray[s] to the oven for 8-10 min or until golden

Once everything is ready, top the toasted ciabatta with the crab aguachile – these are your crab aguachile-style toasts

Serve the crab aguachile-style toasts garnished with the reserved coriander leaves and a lime wedge
Serve the roast potatoes to the side topped with the quick-pickled chilli (not a fan of spice? Just add a little!)
Enjoy!
