Description

  • ALWAYS a hit.

 

Ingredients

1 deep dish pie crust
6ozlump crab
4 eggs
1cheavy cream
3Tbutter
3Tfinely diced onion
1Tgrated parmesan cheese
1dstabasco
2cshredded swiss cheese (one package of kraft)

Instructions

Prebake pie crusts -  with the parmesan sprinkled over the bottom - 10-12 mins should do it

While crusts are baking sweat onions in the butter - once onions are soft add crab meat to warm

Beat eggs & add cream plus a dash of tabasco

Pile onion / crab / butter mixture into pie crust (I like to have it mostly in the middle)

Add Swiss cheese

Pour egg / dairy mixture over the top - take it slow, desite appearances almost all if not all WILL fit in.

Bake in 375 degree oven for at least 45 minutes - up to an hour.  It's ready when the filling is golden brown and doesn't jiggle

Let stand for at least 20 minutes before slicing and serving.

I serve this (currently) with a roasted red pepper sauce striped down one side, a basil mint sauce striped down the other side and the rim of the plate lined with slices of tomato and cucumber
