Fillo Shells with Crab (Tartaletas de Cangrejo)

Another great appetizer, this one with king crab legs. You can use any seafood you  find in your area. Where we live, Alaskan crab is readily available. You can make or buy the fillo shells.  If you decide to make them, they have to be covered until you put them in the oven because fillo dries really quickly. I buy mine already baked.




Ingredients for 15 fillo shells:

2 King Crab Legs
1/4 Red Onion
1/2 Red Pepper
3 - 5 Black Olives

Ingredients for the sauce:

2 Tablespoons Mayonaise
1 Tablespoon Ketchup
1 Tablespoon Brandy


Put the King Crab Legs into boiling water, wait until it starts boiling again and turn the heat off. Let the crab legs cool off, crack them and take the meat out. Chop the crab and mix with the other ingredients. Before serving add the sauce to the mixture, stir and spoon into the fillo shells.
