These crab cakes are great on their own or you may want to add a chilli sauce. In that case I would recommend my home made version, more flavours that the bottled kind and less sweet.
Serve as part of a dinner with:
Starter – Fresh and Fruity Vegetable Starter
Main course – Together with Rosemary Courgette Spaghetti and Home made Chilli Sauce
Dessert – Sweet and Sour Sauce with Strawberries and Vanilla Bean Ice Cream

1 red chilli fruit, chopped
1 tbsp fish sauce
1 tsp sesame oil
Chilli flakes, salt and pepper
Rapeseed or olive oil to fry
