Fresh and delicious, this dish is so simple to make. The crab infused with the flavours of herbs, chilli and lemon is divine while the crostinis give it some crunch.

1. Preheat the grill to medium. For the crostini, place half the baguette slices on a large baking tray, season and brush all over with olive oil. Grill for about 1 minute each side, until golden. Set aside on a wire rack and repeat with the remaining baguette.
2. In a bowl, mix together 75ml oil, the lemon juice, fresh herbs and chopped red chilli. Season to taste and set aside to infuse for 5 minutes.
3. Put the crab into a large bowl and gradually mix in just over half of the herb mixture to bind. Season to taste.
4. Place a ring mould, about 9cm in diameter or pastry cutter on a plate. Press in some of the crab mix, then remove the ring. Repeat to make 6 starters.
5. To serve, top with a small pile of salad leaves. Garnish with the sliced chilli, drizzle around the remaining herb oil and serve with the crostini and lemon wedges to squeeze over.
