1
Prepare the Crab Mixture
In a mixing bowl, combine the fresh lump crab meat, lime juice, fermented chili morita, salt, and black pepper. Mix gently to avoid breaking up the crab meat too much. Set aside.
2
Prepare the Avocado
Slice the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop out the flesh into a bowl. Mash the avocado lightly with a fork, adding a pinch of salt and a squeeze of lime juice to taste.
3
Assemble the Tostadas
On each corn tostada, spread a layer of the mashed avocado. Top with a generous portion of the crab mixture.
4
Add Jalapeño Butter
Drizzle jalapeño butter over the crab mixture on each tostada.
5
Garnish
Finish with a handful of crispy leeks on top of each tostada for added crunch.
6
Serve
Serve immediately while the tostadas are crispy, garnished with extra lime wedges on the side if desired.
