Ingredients

Main Ingredients (2 servings)

  • <b>Potatoes</b> 2 (300g)
  • <b>Crab Sticks</b> 5
  • <b>Mixed Cheese</b> 40g
  • <b>All-Purpose Flour</b> 2 tbsp
  • <b>Egg</b> 1

Seasonings

  • <b>Salt</b> 1/4 tsp

Steps

  1. Wash and peel 2 potatoes (300g), removing any eyes.
  2. Shred the peeled potatoes. (Key Tip!) First, slice the potato thinly to create a flat surface. Then, stand the flat surface on the cutting board and slice thinly. This makes it stable and easier to create fine shreds. Aim for shreds about 1mm thick, as this helps the ingredients bind together. If you find shredding difficult, using a slicer is also recommended.
  3. Tear 5 crab sticks by hand. (Key Tip!) If you want to save time, using a fork can help tear them finely and neatly.
  4. Place the torn crab sticks and shredded potatoes in a bowl. Add 40g mixed cheese, 2 tbsp all-purpose flour, and 1/4 tsp salt. Mix until the flour is evenly distributed.
  5. Once the flour is evenly incorporated, crack in 1 egg and mix until everything is well combined.
  6. Lightly oil a frying pan and heat over medium heat.
  7. Once the pan is hot, scoop the mixed ingredients with a spoon, form them into flat circles, and place them in the pan. (Key Tip!) If they spread a bit, shape them as they cook.
  8. Once placed in the pan, cook until golden brown.
  9. Flip the cakes, reduce heat to low, cover with a lid, and steam for 3 minutes.
  10. After steaming for 3 minutes, check the browning. If it's not dark enough, increase the heat at the end and cook until browned on the surface.
  11. Once both sides are golden brown, transfer to a plate.
