Snappy crab sandwich

Serves:

Ingredients

• 1 slice of bread
• 1 slice of ham
• peel of 1/2 small cucumber
• 1/2 small cucumber, unpeeled
• 2 carrots, peeled and sliced lengthways
• 2 raisins

Method

Using the photo as a guide, cut the crab shell from the bread and another crab shell shape from the ham.

Cut some thin strands of cucumber peel to make the eye stalks.

Form the carrot into shapes for the nippers and legs.

Assemble the crab on a large plate, attaching the raisin eyes to the stalks. Finally, cut out little fish shapes from the cucumber peel for the detail.
