Jersey royals and crab are in season at the same time – and they’re the perfect pairing. Often overlooked in favour of white meat, brown crabmeat has a richer flavour, complementing the earthy potatoes beautifully. An indulgent potato salad, perfect for spring.

If you can find only mixed brown and white crabmeat, that’s fine.
The salad can be served warm or cold, so the potatoes can be cooked in advance if you don’t plan on serving it warm.
