1/2 cup crab meat, cartilage removed
1/2 cup dry fine-shredded pork
1/2 cup water chestnuts, minced fine
2 scallions, minced fine

1 teaspoon sugar
1 teaspoon sesame oil

1 egg white
1 Tablespoon corn starch
1 cup corn oil
Preparation:
1) Cut fat into six-inch squares or use sheets of dough called swallow skin wrappers.
2) Mix crab meat, pork, water chestnuts, scallions, soy sauce, sugar, sesame oil, and white pepper then put about three tablespoons of the mixture on a wrapper and seal with egg white, dust with cornstarch, and set aside. Repeat until all filling is wrapped and sealed.
