Ingredients

  • 1 lb fresh crab meat
  • 1/2 cup breadcrumbs
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh chives
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 tablespoon mayonnaise
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 cup panko breadcrumbs for coating
  • Oil for frying
  • 1 ripe avocado
  • 1/4 cup Greek yogurt
  • 1 tablespoon lime juice
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • Salt to taste

Мethod of preparation

Begin by preparing the crab mixture. In a large bowl, combine the fresh crab meat with breadcrumbs, chopped chives, eggs, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper. Mix thoroughly until the ingredients are well integrated. Shape the mixture into small patties, about two inches in diameter. Gently press each patty into panko breadcrumbs to form a uniform coating around each one, ensuring a crispy exterior when cooked. Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat. Carefully add the crab fritters to the hot oil, frying them in batches to avoid overcrowding. Cook each fritter for about 3-4 minutes on each side until they achieve a golden brown color and a crispy shell. Remove the fritters from the skillet and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to absorb excess oil. For the avocado aioli, mash the ripe avocado in a bowl and blend it with Greek yogurt, lime juice, minced garlic, and a pinch of salt. Serve the crab fritters warm, accompanied by the creamy avocado aioli on the side. This delightful dish promises a delectable experience, uniting the crispy fritters with the creamy, zesty dip.
