Cooking Instructions
Before you start
- Line a baking tray with silver foil
- Bring a medium saucepan filled with salted water to a boil
- Pull out a large frying pan, a medium bowl & a sieve
Get the potatoes on & prep
- Add the potatoes to the saucepan and simmer for 16-18 mins, until almost cooked, then drain
- Meanwhile, roughly chop the dill. Deseed and finely dice the chilli. Finely slice the spring onions. Halve the lemon. Finely slice the leek into 1/2cm half-moons
Build the crab mixture
- Heat the large frying pan with 1 tsp oil on medium-high heat. Once hot, add the leek and cook for 4-5 mins, until soft. Remove the pan from the heat
- Add the dill, spring onion, nutritional yeast, yoghurt, crab, chilli (for those who'd like the heat), half the mustard and a good pinch of salt and pepper to the pan. Mix well
- Turn the grill to high (240C) / air fryer 190C
Make the smashed potatoes
- Place the potatoes onto the foil-lined baking tray. Gently crush with the back of a fork, keeping in one piece
- Drizzle with 1 tsp oil and place under the grill for 4-6 mins / air fryer 2-3 mins, until lightly golden
- Top the potatoes generously with the crab mixture, then place back under the grill for a further 4-6 mins / air fryer 2-3 mins, until golden on top
Assemble the salad
- Meanwhile, finely slice the apple and avocado
- Place both into the medium bowl and gently toss with the rocket, remaining mustard, 1 tbsp oil and the juice from half the lemon. Season with salt and pepper
Plate up
- Share the crab smashed potatoes between plates, with the salad alongside. Squeeze over the remaining lemon (or to taste)
