Crab Coconut And Cilantro Soup Recipes

Steps:

• Heat dressing in medium saucepan on medium-high heat. Add onions; cook 5 min. or until crisp-tender, stirring frequently. Add cream cheese; cook until completely melted, stirring constantly. Stir in broth and coconut milk.
• Cut small slit in pepper. Add to soup with crabmeat and parsley; stir. Simmer on medium-low heat 10 min. or until heated through, stirring occasionally. Meanwhile, combine corn and cilantro.
• Remove and discard pepper. Ladle soup into 6 bowls; top with corn mixture. Serve with lime wedges.

Steps:

• Heat the olive oil in a pan over low heat. Stir in the onion and celery, and sauté gently for 5 minutes, until softened and translucent. Stir in the garlic and chile and cook for a further 2 minutes.
• Add the tomato and half of the cilantro, and increase the heat. Cook, stirring, for 3 minutes, then add the stock. Bring to a boil, then simmer for 5 minutes.
• Stir the crab, coconut milk and the palm oil (butter) into the pan, and simmer over a very low heat for 5 minutes. The consistency should be thick, but not stew-like, so add some water if needed.
• Stir in the lime juice and remaining cilantro, then season with salt to taste.
• Serve with chili oil and lime wedges on the side.
