It’s snow crab season in Nova Scotia! Chef Andrew Farrell from 2 Doors Down was on CTV Morning Live today with this tasty (and super easy!) version of Snow Crab Cabbage Rolls. They taste like spring!

Ingredients

8 whole nappa cabbage leaves
1 cup snow crab leg meat  (we suggest crab from: Fisherman’s Market, Victoria Co-op, Louisbourg Seafoods, NovaCan Live Seafood or Clearwater)
2 cups julienned daikon, apple, carrot
Torn mint and basil
1 tbsp toasted sesame seeds

For dip, simply combine:
3 tbsp lime juice
2 tbsp sugar
1/2 cup water
2.5 tbsp fish sauce
Pinch dried chili
1 clove finely chopped garlic

Assembly

  1. Blanch nappa cabbage leaves in boiling water for 10 seconds and then shock them in ice water.
  2. Dry cabbage with paper towel and trim to wrap size if necessary.
  3. Combine crab meat with daikon, carrot, apple, herbs and sesame seeds, and a slash of the dip.
  4. Divide the filling between the cabbage leaves, and roll tight like a burrito, tucking both ends in.
  5. Serve and enjoy.

Makes 8 servings.
