Wanting to make a special meal for 2.other than the usual of just eating it with salt, pepper and vinegar, which is usually they way we eat it.
Was thinking about making pasta ( homemade ) and tossing it in olive oil, garlic, chilli flakes, parmasan and salt n pepper.
Any other recipes would be greatly appreciated.cheers ;)

We only ever eat crayfish cold, with salt pepper and vinegar. We have had a few this year, very nice I have to say.

we do ours in garlic butter, or in a mornay sauce or straight out of the pot with no extra flavouring. Have also done them in a smokehouse or on the BBQ in foil with whatever herbs we have on hand at the beach. Have never tried it with vinegar but your pasta dishsounds pretty good too. Enjoy whatever you decide :)

I do it cold. Break it into bite sized pieces and toss into either a green salad or rice salad. Also good with a piquant sauce/dip, easy recipe mix equal parts Heinz salad cream (mayonaise isn't sharp enough to get the right taste) and tomato sauce. Mix well and pour onto salad/cray.

We have just had another two dropped off at our place. I may make a seafood sauce to have with these. Our luck must be near over.

I have used in a seafood rissoto.just a normal rissoto recipe and then added shrimps fish and last the crayfish just enough to warm through, son cooks on the bbq raw and with a horseradish and lime mayo.my daughter always hated crays until she tried it the way her brother cooks it now she loves it!
