Preparation
- Step 1
To make pasta, spray a 12-inch nonstick skillet with olive oil and place over low heat. Whisk half of the eggs well and add half of the herbs, ½ teaspoon salt and pepper. Pour into the skillet and cook until all but the top is set, about 3 minutes. Slide the omelet onto a large plate, invert it back into the pan and cook just until the bottom is set, about 20 seconds. Slide onto a large piece of parchment paper and let cool. Repeat with the remaining eggs, herbs, ½ teaspoon salt and pepper.
- Step 2
When cool, slice the omelets into very thin strips. Place in a bowl and toss with the lemon juice, oil, crab meat and salt and pepper to taste. Set aside.
- Step 3
To make salsa, toss all ingredients together in a medium bowl.
- Step 4
To make slaw, whisk together the yogurt, mustard, salt, pepper and coriander. Toss with the lettuce until well mixed.
- Step 5
To serve, mound the pasta in the center of 4 plates. Make a ring around the pasta with the slaw. Place 3 spoons of salsa around the slaw about 4 inches apart. Serve immediately.
