Filling and Toppings

Method

Preparation

1

Prepare the Puff Pastry

Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F). Roll out the puff pastry sheet and cut it into strips or rectangles according to your desired eclair shape. Place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

2

Bake the Pastry

Bake the puff pastry in the preheated oven for about 15-20 minutes or until golden and puffed. Remove from the oven and let cool.

3

Make the Filling

In a mixing bowl, combine the dressed red crab, cream cheese, chopped fresh dill, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined.

4

Prepare the Avocado and Cucumber

Slice the smoked avocado and cucumber thinly. Set aside.

5

Assemble the Eclairs

Once the pastry has cooled, carefully slice them open. Pipe or spoon the crab filling into each eclair. Top with slices of smoked avocado and cucumber.

6

Garnish with Meyer Lemon

Zest the Meyer lemon over the assembled eclairs and squeeze a few drops of juice for added flavor.

7

Serve

Arrange the eclairs on a serving platter and enjoy immediately.
