Instructions: Cut ginger into thin slices and then into fine matchsticks. Shred lemon balm. Chop coriander. Mix all filling ingredients together.

Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.

Melt the butter. Cut one sheet of filo in half to give 2 squares.

Brush each with melted butter placing one over the other giving it a 1/4 turn so that there are 8 points to the filo. Repeat with remaining sheets to give 8 star shapes.

Put crab meat into centre of each. Collect up the sides, gathering over filling and giving a little twist to form a money bag shape.

Place on a baking sheet and brush with butter again.

Bake for 12 to 15 minutes until crisp and golden. Serve with hot and sour dipping sauce.

Hot and sour dipping sauce:
Bring all ingredients to boil in pan and simmer for a few moments to amalgamate flavours. Stir in a tablespoonful of corn oil.

Serve 2 filos on a plate with a sprig of coriander and a drizzle of dipping sauce around.
