Crab Mornay
Approx. 200g crab meat
2 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons plain white flour
1 cup of milk
1/2 onion
1 clove garlic
freshly ground pepper
1 tablespoon fresh chopped parsley
6 tablespoons of grated Mozzarella cheese
Blue Swimmer Crab meat is available at some supermarkets (near
the smoked salmon, oyster and herring department). It is ready to
use, sold vacuum packed and very convenient to use.
1. Chop onion, garlic and parsley finely. Place milk, onions, garlic
and parsley in a saucepan and heat on a very low heat for 15 mins.
This will allow the flavours to intensify. Transfer to a bowl and
allow to cool thoroughly. (May be placed in the fridge to chill
faster)
2. In a thick based medium saucepan melt butter on a low heat and
stir in flour. Cook for 1 min on a low heat. Then add a 1/4 of the
milk at a time while constantly stirring. Then bring to a very low
simmer for a further 4 mins. Add crab meat and heat through for
1 min. Transfer to serving dish when ready to serve.
