Ingredients

This is an appetizer that tastes really good. Few exclusive ingredients cooked to perfection and served nicely on a plate. I served this starter with guests at home and everyone was brilliantly happy!

Step 1

Start by peeling the white asparagus from the top and all the way down. I cut away the 2-3 bottom cm as this part may be a little trampled. Find a saucepan and add water, salt, sugar, butter and lemon juice. Cook on medium heat for 5-8 minutes until soft, but with a little chewing resistance in the middle.

Step 2

Fry parma ham in a pan with a little oil and place on a drying roll so the fat can drain off. This gives you incredibly crispy slices of Parma ham. Cut into smaller pieces.

Step 3

Clean the raw frozen king crab and try to get them as whole as possible out of the shell. Fry in good butter on medium heat for a few minutes. (I leave the fat from frying parma ham left in the pan for extra flavor).

Step 4

Cut king crab and asparagus into suitably large pieces. Place neatly on a plate and pour over some of the frying butter. Sprinkle with a little crispy parma ham and garnish with some herbs. A beautiful and tasty dish.
