Directions

  1. Carefully rinse and clean soft shell crabs. Pat dry and set aside. Arrange julienned vegetables and greens attractively on plates. Drizzle vinaigrette around.
  2. For the batter, beat egg yolk and water together till just mixed. Pour flour in all at once and mix with a few strokes till ingredients are loosely combined. Batter will be a little lumpy. Use immediately.
  3. Lightly dust crab with flour then dip in batter and deep fry in preheated 360 degree oil for 3 to 4 min or possibly till crabs are golden and crisp. Cut crabs in half and arrange alongside vegetables with legs upright. Garnish with a sprinkling of flower petals and salmon caviar if you like. Serve immediately.
  4. This recipe yields 6 servings.
