Ingredients

  • Servings: 12
  • 1 lb cod or 1 lb other fish fillet, poached,cooled and shredded with fingers
  • 1/2 lb small shrimp, drained well (or more, if fresh, boil briefly to cook, if frozen, thaw and run under cold running water)
  • 1/2 lb tinned crabmeat, drained and shredded (or more, sometimes i don't use the crab and just use more whitefish and shrimp to make it more econo)
  • 1 bunch spring onion, cleaned, and crisp green part chopped into 1/4 inch slices
  • 4 -5 stalks celery, sliced thin
  • 2 heads romaine lettuce, cut across into 1 inch strips

  • 3 tablespoons vinegar (or to taste)
  • 2 tablespoons curry powder
  • salt and pepper

Recipe

  • 1 in a humungous bowl (really big or a big pot), put in all dry ingredients.
  • 2 mix up dressing in a small bowl, taste to make sure it is to your liking in seasoning (make the dressing sharper than you normally would - the rice needs it), and pour over ingredients in pot.
  • 3 with very clean hands, mix up the whole mess in the pot.
  • 4 empty into a very large tupperware bowl and refrigerate until ready to serve.
  • 5 to serve: line a large, pretty bowl with whole, washed romaine lettuce leaves and put the curried seafood salad in the middle with the green leaves jutting all around.
  • 6 put the hearts of the two romaine lettuce attractively in the middle.
