    Utensils Used
    | 1. Boil the potato for 15 minutes until soft. | 2. Meanwhile, place 1 ounce of the butter and all of the cream in a heavy-based pan and bring to the boil. | 3. Slice the green onions, separating the green and white parts, then add the white slices to the boiling liquid and cook for 1 to 2 minutes to soften. | 4. Pass the cooked potato through a ricer or sieve to a really fine mash and then add to the pan and mix everything together. Set aside to cool. | 5. Add the crabmeat and sliced green bits of the onion to the potato mixture and stir together. | 6. Melt the remaining butter. | 7. Unwrap the filo pastry and cover with a clean, damp tea towel to prevent it drying out. | 8. Brush melted butter over one sheet, place another on top and brush again with butter. Then add a final sheet of filo. | 9. Cut the filo sheets into 3 long strips. Then cut each strip in half across the middle. | 10. Place a teaspoon of the crab onto the bottom right-hand corner of each filo strip. | 11. Fold the filo over to make a triangle, then fold again, rolling up the strip. | 12. When the mixture is enclosed and you have neat triangle shape, place on a baking tray and brush with more butter. | 13. Heat oven to 400 degrees and cook the rolls for 15 to 20 minutes until golden and crisp. | 14. To serve, pile the parcels up on a plate or bowl. Then scatter over the extra sliced green onion, if you like. | 15. FREEZING DIRECTIONS: These can be frozen if using fresh crab. Freeze at the point before cooking. They can be frozen for up to a month. | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
