Fighting Crab Crunchy Potato #5FIX
"5-Ingredient Fix Contest Entry. Movies that inspire recipes are just as fun as recipes that are inspired from movies. While watching 'Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon' one night trying to dream up a unique recipe, it hit me like a kung fu blow to the creative parts of my brain. Fighting Crab Crunchy Potato rose to the rank of black belt of taste buds with crab meat that packs a punch and potato hash that crisp as it cooks!"

We enjoyed this dish. Very creative use of ingredients! The patties were a bit difficult to hold together, I think a binder of some sort would help with that. Overall, a nice dish.
