- If you are strict vegetarian, try using shredded cabbage instead of crab meat.
Ingredients:
1 pound (500 g) crab meat, drained
1 small onion, cubed
3 garlic cloves, chopped
1 green bell pepper, seeded and cubed
1 red bell pepper, seeded and cubed
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon canola oil
2 tomatoes, peeled, seeded and chopped
1/2 tablespoon palm oil
1 cup coconut milk
1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped
Salt and pepper to taste
Bread crumbs
Grated Parmesan cheese
Crab or scallop shells
Lime wedges
Directions:
Preheat oven to 350°F (180°) or use the broiler inside the oven.
1) In a skillet, heat olive oil and sauté onions, garlic and bell peppers until soft. Stir in crab meat and cook 3-5 minutes. Add tomatoes and simmer for about 5 minutes.
2) Add coconut milk, salt, pepper and palm oil, cooking about 3-5 minutes. Stir in parsley. Remove from heat.
3) Fill the shells with the crab mixture and top with bread crumbs mixed with Parmesan cheese. Bake for 15-20 minutes or until lightly brown. Sprinkle lime juice when serving.

My husband would go crazy for these. And you've photographed them so beautifully that I can't wait to try them.
I'm drooling over these Cris because of your pictures! Too bad I don't get any canola oil around here, it sure seeams to be a healthy alternative.

Thanks for posting this. One of my most precious memories is sitting by the beach at Leme, with my mother in the evenings, eating casquinhas (with a caipirinha or a beer) and watching the world go by.... Funny how food is tied to memory!
