6 Servings

Ingredients:
1/4 cup butter, divided
1/4 cup green bell peppers, cut
lengthwise into thin strips
1/2 kilo crabmeat, steamed and flaked
1/4 kilo shrimp, shelled
1 tablespoon chopped parsley
36 pieces wonton wrappers
1/4 cup Parmesan cheese
1/4 cup mayonnaise
1 tablespoon lemon juice
Parsley sprigs or garnish

Method:
Preheat oven to 350°F. Lightly grease muffin pans. In a large frying pan melt 2 tablespoons of the butter. Add green pepper strips and cook until softened.

Stir in crabmeat and shrimp and cook until shrimp turn pink. Do not overcook. Remove from heat and stir in parsley until thoroughly mixed. Set aside.

Brush lightly one side of each wanton wrapper with remaining butter until just before edges of wrappers. Sprinkle with a little Parmesan cheese.

Arrange a second layer of wanton wrapper at a right angle to create a star shape. Brush again with butter and sprinkle with Parmesan cheese. Put another sheet of wanton wrapper but don't brush with butter.

Arrange into greased muffin pans, keeping edges pointing up to form a flatbottomed tulip shape.

Bake until crisp and golden, about 10 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool slightly.

Divide shrimp mixture evenly among cases and top with remaining cheese. Set aside.

In a bowl, mix mayonnaise with lemon juice and drizzle a little over each wanton case. Garnish with parsley sprigs before serving .
