SPANNER CRAB & SWEET CORN SOUP
We didn't ask any world class chefs to conjure up some magical dishes, we asked the people that cook for their families each day on budgets. Our ladies that grade, clean and process our spanner crab each day. They came up with a feast - as you can see from the photos. These recipes we would like to share with you with the consent of our lovely special ladies. Bon Appetite!
