Crab Mushroom Hand Pies
Healthy, because
Even smarter
The dough from the hand pies provides you with energizing carbs, the mushrooms are very low in calories but provide fiber and other nutrients such as vitamin D and copper, and the crab is high in phosphorous, which is an important mineral for the growth of bones and teeth.
This dish is higher in calories, so it is good to serve it with a light, side salad full of nutrients.
Ingredients
- Ingredients
- 12 Crab claws
- 6 cups Chanterelle
- 3 Tbsps sunflower oil
- 9 ozs Puff pastry
- plain flour (for dusting)
- ⅔ cup double cream
- 1 egg yolk
- salt
- peppers
Preparation steps
Crack the crab claws and shell them. Dice the flesh and set aside. Preheat the oven at 400°F.
Roll out the pastry on a lightly floured worktop. Cut out two rounds, one 8" in diameter and another round 12" in diameter. Put the rounds in the refrigerator, separated by a sheet of greaseproof paper.
Line a baking tray with greaseproof paper. Place the small pastry round on it. Add the crab-mushroom preparation to the centre of the pastry, leaving a 1" border all the way around.
