John would like to dedicate this to Katie as an apology for losing his

wedding ring in the sand castle at the Crab Shack in St Brelade’s Bay,

Jersey. And to the Pennys for helping to try to find it.

Season the crabmeat with the oil, lemon, salt and cayenne pepper.

Arrange the crab on a serving plate with the other salad ingredients.

For the dressing, blend the mayonnaise with the spring onions, ginger, soy and

vinegar. Season well and serve on the side

TIP : Add some brown crabmeat to the dressing if you like.
