50g of sausage skins.

3)Make a small incision into the sausage skins and peel off from the cooked crab sausages. Using a spiral string cutter, use enough potato to wrap around all the sausages. Set aside for deep frying

4) For the sweetcorn purée, add all the ingredients into a saucepan and bring to a simmer. When the corn is tender put aside 100g for garnish and blend the remainder until smooth. Season to taste and pass through a fine chinoise

5) For the panna cotta, place the sweetcorn, milk and cream into a saucepan and bring to a simmer. Cook until the corn is tender, remove from the heat and blend until smooth. While still hot, add the agar agar and dissolve. Pass through a fine chinoise, season to taste and set in a shallow tray lined with cling film in the refrigerator.

6) Deep fry the cannelloni until the potato is golden brown

7) To plate, place a line of the sweetcorn down the middle of the plate. Cut the panna cotta into a rectangular shape suitable for the plate. Dot the purée around the plate and stand up the cannelloni on the purée. Sprinkle with fresh crab meat and micro cress
