Recipe Instructions

* Note: See the "Piri Piri I" recipe which is included in this collection.

Preheat the oil. In a mixing bowl, combine the crab meat, onions, garlic and parsley together. Season the mixture with salt and pepper. Stir in the aioli. Place a tablespoon of the filling in the center of each puff pastry square. Bring to corners of the square together, forming a triangle. Seal the edges of the triangle tightly. Fry the triangle in the hot oil until golden brown and crispy, about 2 minutes, stirring constantly for over-all browning. Remove the triangles from the oil and drain on a paper-lined plate. Season with salt and pepper. Mound the rissois on a platter and drizzle with Piri Piri I sauce. Garnish with parsley.

This recipe yields 3 dozen.
