🛒 Ingredients

  • 4 slices sourdough bread (1 inch thick)
  • 250g fresh crab meat (lump preferred)
  • 2 red Thai chilies, finely minced
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 green onions, sliced
  • 1 tbsp fresh cilantro, chopped
  • 1 tbsp olive oil spray (for toasting)
  • 1/4 tsp sea salt
  • 1/4 tsp white pepper
  • 1/3 cup full-fat mayo
  • 1/4 cup plain Greek yogurt (0% fat)
  • 2 tbsp panko breadcrumbs
  • 1 tbsp lime juice
  • 1/2 tsp fish sauce
  • 1/2 tsp sesame oil

👨‍🍳 Instructions

1. Toast the Breadcrumbs: Heat a small skillet over medium-high heat. Add panko breadcrumbs and dry-toast for 2–3 minutes, stirring frequently, until golden and fragrant. Set aside on a plate.
2. Prepare the Light Mayo Blend: In a bowl, whisk together mayo, Greek yogurt, lime juice, fish sauce, and sesame oil until smooth. Taste and adjust lime/salt to preference. Set aside.
3. Toast the Bread: Lightly spray both sides of sourdough slices with olive oil. Toast in a skillet over medium heat or toaster oven for 2–3 minutes per side until golden-brown and crispy. Transfer to a serving platter.

4. Sauté the Chili-Garlic Base: In the same skillet, add 1/2 tbsp olive oil and sauté minced garlic and chilies over medium heat for 1–2 minutes until fragrant but not burnt. Watch carefully to avoid bitterness.
5. Fold in the Crab: Gently fold fresh crab meat into the chili-garlic mixture. Toss carefully for 1–2 minutes to warm through and evenly distribute spice. Season with salt and white pepper. Remove from heat.
6. Build the Toast: Spread 2 tbsp of the Greek yogurt-mayo blend on each warm toasted slice. Top with equal portions of the warm crab-chili mixture, dividing evenly.
7. Garnish and Serve: Sprinkle toasted panko breadcrumbs over each toast for crunch. Top with sliced green onions and fresh cilantro. Serve immediately while warm and crispy.
