    Toast is getting big and very posh. It's moved across from San Francisco and been spotted at the London based Brickhouse Bakery who have been creating limited edition flavours. If you want to look like Gwyneth Paltrow, then eat Avocado Toast. Gwyneth has a recipe for vegan avocado toast in her recipe book, 'It's All Good' - she compares it to 'a favourite pair of jeans'. Here at SuffolkFoodie, we don't look like Gwyneth but are bang on trend; we're eating Hot Cromer Crab on Toast.

    INGREDIENTS (serves 4)

     1 dressed Cromer crab
    2 tablespoons mayonnaise
    2 teaspoons readymade English mustard
    2 tablespoons finely grated Parmesan cheese
    2 tablespoons finely grated Cheddar cheese
    1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley

    1 tablespoon chopped chervil
    juice of 1/2 of a lemon and a teaspoon of the finely grated rind
    sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
    a little oil, for greasing

    4 slices of thickly cut bread  (sourdough is perfect)

     

    Preheat the oven to 180C / gas 4 and lightly oil a baking tray.

    In a bowl mix together the crabmeat, mayonnaise, mustard, half the chopped herbs, lemon rind and lemon juice, and season well.

    Preheat the grill, or heat a griddle pan, and lightly toast the bread on one side only. Arrange on the prepared baking tray, toasted side down, then generously spread each slice with the crab mixture and sprinkle with a little of each cheese. Put into the preheated oven for about 8 minutes, until the cheese melts and turns golden brown. Take out of the oven, sprinkle with the remaining chopped herbs. Serve with the salad leaves, tossed with the dressing, and a wedge of lemon.
