These crab and avocado cups are going to be my new recipe to introduce you to this summer season's fesquita recipes that we already have around the corner.

They are a fantastic choice to prepare in the form of crab tartare seasoned with an acidic touch, and a smooth, soft avocado mousse perfect for preparing in just 15 minutes

You can prepare them with centollo like me that are amazing, but you can also use fresh tuna or salmon and it will also look delicious and very beautiful.
