Ingredients for Our Crab Balls
Preparation of Our Crab Balls
To get started, prepare the first five ingredients in a food processor for two minutes or until very smooth, stopping to scrape down the sides. Transfer the resulting crab paste to a bowl, and stir in green onions. Cover and chill for one hour.
Form the paste into 1/2-inch balls, squeezing tightly; roll balls in sesame seeds. Place on a wax paper-covered plate in the refrigerator until ready to fry.
Heat vegetable oil to 375° and heat oven to 200°. Fry crab balls, in batches (making sure oil doesn’t fall below 350°), for 2 minutes or until lightly browned. Drain on paper towels, and place in oven while frying the other balls.
Place a small mound of daikon radish, enoki mushrooms, and radish sprouts on one side of 6 small, warmed bowls. Arrange 3 or 4 balls in a pyramid in the bowls. Carefully ladle 2 tablespoons Savory Broth around the balls; top with nori. Serve immediately.
