Heat a large boiling pot over a medum/high heat. Add in the sausages and seal on all sides for 5 minutes. Remove from the pot and allow to cool before slicing.
Place the potatoes into the bottom of the same pot and add in the crab boil mix, garlic, onion and pour in 2.5litres of cold water. Place back onto the heat and bring up to a simmer. Cook for 2 minutes before adding in the corn, prawns and crab. Bring up to a simmer and cook for 8-10 minutes, or until the prawns have cooked through and the crabs have changed colour. Remove the prawns and crab from the pot when they are ready and prepare the crabs.
While the seafood is cooking, heat the oil on a gentle heat and add in the chilli and pepper. Leave on a low heat to infuse, then turn off and add parsley.
To serve, drain the potatoes and corn from the pot an place onto a large serving tray lined with baking paper. Place on the prawns, crab and lemon wedges onto the tray. Pour the oil in a serving dish and scatter the tray with extra parsley and lemon wedges.
