Mix the crab mixture into the dough until well combined.

Roll the dough into small balls or discs, about the size of a golf ball.

Fill each dough piece with the crab mixture, sealing them tightly.

Bring a pot of water to a boil and add a pinch of salt.

Carefully drop the filled dough pieces into the boiling water.

Cook for 10-12 minutes until they float to the surface and are cooked through.

Remove the dumplings with a slotted spoon and drain excess water.

Serve hot with a drizzle of hot sauce and garnish with parsley.
