Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 Large tomatoes
- 200 g Lump crab meat
- 1 large Avocado
- 2 tablespoons Mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley
- 1 Green onion
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon Paprika
Instructions
Wash the tomatoes and pat them dry with a paper towel.
Slice off the top of each tomato and gently scoop out the seeds and pulp using a spoon, being careful not to tear the outer shell. Set the hollowed tomatoes upside down on a plate to drain.
In a medium-sized bowl, combine the crab meat, diced avocado, mayonnaise, lemon juice, chopped fresh parsley, and finely sliced green onion.
Season the crab mixture with salt, black pepper, and paprika. Mix gently to avoid mashing the avocado.
Flip the hollowed tomatoes back upright and fill each one generously with the crab and avocado mixture.
Sprinkle with extra parsley or paprika as garnish, if desired.
Serve immediately or chill in the refrigerator for up to 30 minutes before serving.
