Instructions
Add butter, flour and milk to pot; cook over medium heat for 10-12 minutes stirring repeatedly. In separate pot, add bouillon, Worcestershire, mayonnaise, pimento and green pepper; cook over medium heat for 10-12 minutes, stirring repeatedly. Combine ingredients of both pots. Add crabmeat. Gently put into ramekins (or suitably-sized oven-proof bowls)and sprinkle with paprika. Bake on a cookie sheet at 425°F for 20-25 minutes. **
Author's Comments
You can stir both pots simultaneously, (cutting down on your prep time) if you prepare each ahead.
* I use one 16-oz can of Phillips pasteurized lump crabmeat
** I serve with a twice-baked potato and steamed asparagus.
