INSTRUCTIONS
In a large bowl, mix flour and chile. Whisk in soda water until a pancake
batter consistency is achieved. Completely coat the crab in the batter.
Lightly drop in 350 degree oil and fry for 4 to 5 minutes until golden
brown. Season with salt and drain on paper towels.
For the Kinchee Slaw: In a non-reactive saucepan, heat the vinegar, chile,
salt and sugar until just boiling. Add the cabbage, carrots and garlic and
simmer for only 3 minutes. Pull off the stove and let cool.
Transfer to a glass container with an air tight lid. Store in refrigerator
overnight. Will keep for 3 to 4 weeks as long as you do not introduce
bacteria to it, ie. your finger.
For plating: Place a small mound of slaw on the bottom piece of bread. Top
with 1 crab and top with a little more slaw. Cover with top piece of bread
and slice in half.
This recipe yields 4 servings.
