Poached Fleetwood Brill with Crab & Ginger Ravioli
Poached Fleetwood Brill with Crab & Ginger Ravioli
Chefs often regard crab meat as a two-in-one ingredient. While white meat contains a light and sweet flavour the brown meat is often richer in taste meaning it can be used as a mix and on its own due to its unique flavour. Why not give the following Poached Fleetwood Brill with Crab & Ginger Ravioli recipe a try in your kitchen? Main course cooked by Louis Tucker from Harvey Nichols in Manchester during the Greater Manchester Heat of the North West Young Chef 2011 Competition.
