1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 kilo fresh crab meat
4 cups water
1/4 kilo medium shrimp - shelled and deveined
1/4 kilo shelled fish and pomfret fillets
(in the ratio of 50:50)
Method
In a heavy pan, saute the onion and the pepper in 1/4 cup of the

and pomfret. Simmer
for 3 minutes. Drain and reserve 1 cup of the cooking liquid and
set the seafood aside.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). In a heavy saucepan,
melt the
remaining 1/4 cup butter over low heat. Stir in the remaining 1/4
cup flour. Cook and stir
constantly for 1 minute. Gradually add the milk plus the 1 cup reserved
cooking liquid.
Raise heat to medium and cook, stirring constantly, until the mixture
is thickened and
bubbly. Stir in the shredded Cheddar cheese, vinegar, Worcestershire
sauce, salt,
pepper, and hot sauce.

over the crab meat
crust and sprinkle with the Parmesan cheese. Bake in the preheated
