Crab and Pear Taj Mahal

Category: Fish & Seafood

Ingredients

3 large, firm pears
7/8 cup of mayonnaise (1 cup less 1 Tablespoon)
1 large egg yolk
6 ounces of jumbo lump crab meat
1/4 cup of peeled and seeded cucumber
3 scallions sliced thin and minced
1 teaspoon of minced, fresh ginger
Pinch of salt
3/4 cup of fresh lemon juice
2 teaspoons of curry powder
Pinch of pepper
Paprika sprinkled on top for decoration
Parsley for decoration

Directions

Peel the pears, slice in half lengthwise, and remove core from the center. Poach with lemon juice until pears are barely tender. Let cool for five minutes. In a bowl, whisk the mayonnaise, egg yolk, curry powder, salt and pepper. In another bowl, combine the crab meat, cucumbers, scallions and the ginger root. Carefully fold in half of the mayonnaise mixture into the crab mixture. Mix carefully so as not to break the crab meat.

Fill pears with the crab mixture: put in a low-sided pan at 350 degrees and bake until crab starts to brown on top. If desired, decorate with paprika and parsley when served. Extra mayonnaise may be used on crab.
