👨‍🍳 Instructions

1. If using a live crab, boil it in salted water for 15-20 minutes depending on size, then allow to cool.
2. Carefully remove the top shell and clean out the gills and any other undesirable parts from both the shell and the body.
3. Extract the white meat from the claws and legs, keeping it separate, and scoop out the soft brown meat from the body and shell.
4. Mix the brown crab meat with mayonnaise, a squeeze of lemon juice, and season with salt and pepper to taste.
5. Return the cleaned crab shell to a serving plate and arrange the seasoned brown meat and the white claw and leg meat separately back into the shell.
6. Garnish with fresh parsley and a lemon wedge, then serve immediately with crusty bread or a fresh salad.
