Baked seafood avocado

Serve hot either as a starter or for a nice lunch.

What you need

25 g butter
25 g plain flour
250 ml milk
seasoning
175 g canned crab meat
3 medium avocados
1 tsp fresh lemon juice to sprinkle
2 tsp natural dried breadcrumbs

Method

  1. Preheat oven to 160°C.

  2. Melt the butter in a saucepan. Stir in the flour and cook for 1-2 min. Remove from heat and gradually whisk in the milk until all is incorporated.

  3. Return the sauce to the heat. Bring to the boil and cook for 1-2 min or until thickened. Season to taste. Leave to cool slightly. Stir in the crabmeat.

  4. Cut the avocado in half lengthways and discard the stones. Brush the cut surfaces with the lemon juice to help prevent discoloration.

  5. Arrange the avocado halves on a baking tray. Fill each half with the crab-mixture and sprinkle over the breadcrumbs. Cook in the oven for 15-20 min or until piping hot. Serve immediately.
