Yield: 2 servings
Ingredients: 4 whole soft-shell crabs (about 2.5 oz each), cleaned and patted dry; 12 wonton wrappers; 2 tablespoons tamarind paste; 3 tablespoons palm sugar; 2 tablespoons fish sauce; 2 tablespoons lime juice; ¼ teaspoon dried chili flakes; 3 tablespoons neutral oil (for lime oil); 2 limes, zested; 1 Thai bird's eye chili, minced; 3 tablespoons sesame oil; 2 tablespoons white sesame seeds, toasted; 2 tablespoons black sesame seeds; Neutral oil for frying (about 2 cups); Fleur de sel to taste; Microgreens for garnish; 2 tablespoons water

Whole soft-shell crabs are expertly wrapped in silken wonton skins and crisped until shatteringly golden. They arrive at the table with a sticky-tart tamarind gastrique and a spicy lime oil that cuts through the richness, finished with a scatter of toasted sesame seeds and microgreens for a sophisticated spring appetizer that's both luxurious and playfully crispy.
