Ingredients
4 spring onions, chopped
1 garlic clove
500g/1lb 2oz white crabmeat
3 tsp Japanese wasabi
2 tsp rice vinegar
2 tsp tamari or Japanese soy sauce
100g/4oz brown rice flour
groundnut or other vegetable oil for frying
limes sliced into segments, to garnish

Method
1. Place the garlic and the spring onions into the bowl of a food processor and blend until they become finely chopped.
2. Add the crabmeat, wasabi, rice vinegar, tamari or soy sauce and the rice flour to the bowl. Blend the mixture again until it has combined to form a rough paste.
3. In a large frying pan, add enough oil to fill the panto a depth of 0.5cm/¼in. Heat the oil until a breadcrumb sizzles and turns golden-brown when added (CAUTION: Hot oil can be dangerous. Do not leave unattended).
4. Roll teaspoonfuls of crab mixture into balls with your hands. Flatten the balls slightly and carefully place them into the hot oil. Fry the crabcakes until they turn golden-brown on both sides and are cooked through (only cook 8-10 crab cakes in the pan at one time so that they can be turned quickly and the oil temperature doesn't drop too much). Drain the crabcakes on kitchen paper.
5. To serve place the crabcakes on a clean plate and place the lime segments around the plate.
