Serves four

Step 1
Cut the root off each chicory, then separate them into individual leaves.

Step 2
Mix the crab with the chilli, ginger, basil and nuts, then stir in the lime zest and juice.

Step 3
Spoon a little crab mix on to the wide end of each chicory leaf, leaving the root end free: this acts as a handy handle with which to pick them up.

Step 4
Dribble a dash of olive oil over each one, and serve.
