Chilli crab is a Singapore national dish, but some might find it cumbersome to eat. I reinterpreted this dish to be more accessible by first cooking the crab meat in chilli crab sauce, then wrapping it with yam fritter dough. The end result? A delectable combination of textures and flavours that also engages the diners' senses, all in one bite!
