I’m putting up this recipe because this has been a family tradition on Easter, Christmas, birthdays and anniversaries, why you ask? It’s simply divine, decadent and occasions like these deserve a long drawn out lunch especially over cocktails or beers. My father usually makes these lunches, its a labour of love, I however do things quite differently. My prep and cooking methods are nowhere close to what we usually make at home, its a bit more tedious and laborious, however the end result is worth every sweaty minute spent making this. I will be making quite a few side dishes to go with this, that will feature in the Easter Special 02, most of them may be prepared a day before, because you don’t want to spend the entire morning on Easter in the kitchen, especially if you can spend it drinking a Caprioska on a warm summer day. Enjoy!
This recipe may seem daunting for novice home cooks, I would strongly suggest giving it a try, but if you find it too complicated I will be putting up a cheats roast chicken recipe too.

Crabs are one of the staple crustaceans, along with prawns, that are regularly consumed on our dining tables. It’s a long decadent, messy meal which we wait for week after week, especially during the spawning season, when its not available. The version by my mum is one of the easiest crab dishes to prepare, even a novice will nail it. Its crabby, meaty, spicy and oh so tasty. Hope you like this recipe. Enjoy!
