Ingredients: 1 lb purple taro root, peeled & very thinly sliced (mandoline, 1/16-inch); neutral oil for frying (about 2 cups); 8 oz fresh lump crab meat; 2 tbsp toasted coconut flakes; 1 tbsp tamarind paste; 1 tsp lime juice; pinch of sea salt; 4 spring onions (white & light green parts), cut into 2-inch batons; 3 tbsp neutral oil; fleur de sel; 2 cloves garlic, minced; 1 egg yolk; ½ tsp Dijon mustard; 3 tbsp neutral oil; 2 tbsp yuzu juice (or lemon if unavailable); pinch of white pepper; microgreens for garnish

Paper-thin fried taro cones cradle a mixture of fresh lump crab, toasted coconut, and a hint of tamarind paste—creating a sweet, savory, umami-rich filling. Finished with hot charred scallion oil that sizzles against the crispy cone, and a vibrant yuzu aioli that adds bright, bitter citrus depth. A sophisticated handheld course that's equal parts textural delight and flavor complexity.
