EZCR #11 - PAN FRIED CRABMEAT PATTIES

This is an easy pan fried crab meat patty which can be served as snack or light lunch. It is fried in a piece then cut into small squares to serve with sweet chilli sauce or mayonnaise.

To get a crispy texture, the batter has to be more watery and deep fried.  Here, I pan fried it cos' I didn't want to use too much oil for frying.

Ingredients
[makes 1 big piece]
½ bowl of crabmeat 
1 big yellow onion – peeled and sliced
½ carrot – shredded
½ cup plain flour
3 tbsp low fat milk or water
½ tsp each of salt and pepper

1. Combine all the ingredients in a big bowl. Mix well into a sticky and thick paste [add more flour if it is too wet].
2. Heat a non-stick pan with 2 tbsp oil. Pour in mixture and spread out to get an even thickness like frying a pancake over low fire until firm at the edges.
3. Flip over to fry the other side until cooked through about 5-10 minutes.
4. Turn to high heat to fry for a few seconds before dishing up.
5. Cut into wedges or small squares.  Serve with chilli sauce or mayonnaise.
