Crab Hedgehogs
Description
Works for both special occasions and everyday meals. The "Raffaello" recipe made from crab sticks is very popular, and this one is a bit different. These balls are fried in a deep fryer or in a pan with hot oil. Serve them after they cool; they can be served on skewers or with crackers. Make several sauces to taste. They can be served warm or chilled.
