How to prepare Fried Crab Stick
-
Preparing the ingredients
Crab sticks bought should be torn into small long pieces by hand.
Onion should have the roots cut off, be peeled, washed clean, and diced.
-
Making the batter mixture
You put 45gr of unsalted butter into the pan and heat it on the stove at medium temperature for about 2 minutes until the butter melts.
Next, you add diced onion to sauté with the butter for about 1 – 2 minutes, then add 20gr of flour and stir continuously for about 1 minute until no dry flour sticks to the pan.
Next, you pour 200ml of unsweetened milk into the pan and stir well for 2 – 3 minutes until the mixture thickens as shown.
Then, you add 250ml of whipping cream and continue stirring for another 30 seconds, then add all the shredded crab sticks and stir evenly for about 2 minutes until the ingredients form a dough and no longer stick to the pan, then turn off the heat.
You pour the dough into a mold lined with parchment paper and spread it evenly, then place it in the freezer of the refrigerator for 2 hours.
-
Form the balls
After 2 hours, take the dough out of the refrigerator and use a knife to divide the dough into equal portions.
Take each portion of dough and use your hands to roll it into round balls until finished.
Once you have the dough balls in your desired size, coat each ball evenly in crispy flour, followed by beaten eggs, and finally panko breadcrumbs.
-
Fry the crab stick balls
Add 200ml of cooking oil to a pan and heat it over medium heat. When the oil is hot, gradually add each dough ball and fry until fully submerged.
Turn the dough balls regularly and fry for about 4 – 6 minutes until they are golden brown, then remove them and let them drain.
-
Final Product
The fried crab stick balls, when cooked, have an appealing aroma, with a golden, crispy outer layer that crackles when bitten, while the inside is incredibly wonderful with soft crab sticks combined with rich milk and whipping cream, along with sweet and crunchy onions, making it more enjoyable with each bite.
This dish, when eaten with chili sauce, ketchup, and mayonnaise, is absolutely fantastic!

Prepare the Ingredients
After purchasing the crab sticks, you can briefly blanch them in boiling water to clean the pre-made crab sticks. Then, separate the crab sticks into thin pieces and place them in a bowl, add 1 tablespoon of cooking oil and 1 tablespoon of cornstarch, and use chopsticks to mix well so that the starch absorbs evenly into the crab stick pieces.

Fried crab sticks

Final product
After frying, the crab sticks are crispy, and you can dip them in chili sauce. This is a snack that is perfect to eat while watching a movie.
How to prevent the batter from slipping off:
After rolling in all the layers of flour, eggs, and breadcrumbs, you should not fry them immediately. Instead, place them in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes; the cold temperature helps the batter set and adhere more firmly to the filling.
How to store fried crab sticks:
- Crispy fried crab sticks: After frying, let them drain and place them in a sealed container, which can be stored for a few days.
- Breaded crab sticks: When frying, ensure the filling is cooked through and the outside is slightly golden. Let them cool before putting them in the refrigerator. When ready to use, take them out and fry for a few more minutes.
