Chilli Crab Spaghetti
2 people
Richard Corner, the man who provides us with some truly exceptional, sustainably sourced crab, says: "This is one of my favourite recipes, it doesn't take too long to cook, and tastes really good." However, if you don't have any crab, or want to whip up a vegetarian version, the chilli tomato combo on its own is enough to make your taste buds swoon.

I have made this several times. Made it once with both white and brown crab meat but found it too fishy tasting. Best ever recipe was made by adding prawns instead of the crab meat. Depending on what I have I either use spaghetti or tagliatelle. I also agree that it tastes great cold the following day. xx

I have used this recipe a lot. It’s quick and easy to do after a long day at work and I take the leftovers to work the next day for lunch - tastes great cold!

Quick, delicious and generous portion. As I love my protein I added a pot of white crabmeat as well.
