Spicy Crab And Prawn Fritters With Chilli Lime Dipping Sauce Recipes

Steps:

• Shell and devein prawns, blend or process with crab, paste, egg, onion, herbs and chill until just combined.
• Using hands, shape level tablespoons of mixture into fritter shapes.
• Heat oil in a large frying pan, cook fritters, in batches, until golden brown and cooked through, drain on absorbent paper.
• Serve fritters with chili lime dipping sauce.

Steps:

• To make the fritter batter, combine flour, baking powder and salt in a large bowl. In another smaller bowl, whisk together oil, milk, egg and black pepper. Add the egg mixture to the flour mixture and combine until all dry ingredients are moistened.
• Heat oil to 375 degrees F in a deep-fryer.
• Mix panko bread crumbs, Cajun Seasoning, mayonnaise, parsley and lemon juice. Fold in crab meat, trying to avoid breaking up lumps. Form crab mixture into "cocktail size" balls. Place the crab ball on a slotted spoon, and holding over the bowl of fritter batter, ladle enough of the batter over it to coat. Deep-fry in hot oil until golden brown and drain.
• Whisk together mayonnaise and Chipotle Chile Powder. Season, with salt, if needed. Serve crab fritters with spicy mayo as a dipping sauce.

Steps:

• Make sauce:
• Mix all ingredients in large bowl to blend. Cover and chill at least 1 hour or overnight to develop flavors.
• Make fritters:
• Mix mayonnaise, mustard, lemon peel and hot pepper sauce in medium bowl to blend. Mix in crabmeat. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Shape crab mixture into six 2 1/4-inch-diameter patties, using 1/4 cup mixture for each. Place fritters on baking sheet. Cover and refrigerate at least 3 hours.
• Cut all peel and white pith from grapefruits. Using small sharp knife, cut between membranes to release segments. Repeat with oranges. Chill segments until ready to serve.
• Place panko in shallow dish. Cost each fritter with panko, pressing to adhere. Pour oil into heavy large skillet to depth of 1/2 inch and heat to 350°F. Cook fritters in batches until brown and heated through, about 2 minutes per side. Drain fritters on paper towels.
• Fan avocado slices and grapefruit and orange segments on plates. Drizzle 1 tablespoon sauce over each plate. Top each with 1 fritter. Sprinkle cilantro and chives over and serve.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Put the baguette slices onto a baking tray, drizzle over half the oil, add some seasoning, then bake for 5 mins until golden at the edges.
• Meanwhile, mix the crab, chilli, coriander, lime zest and juice with the remaining oil and some seasoning, then spoon on top of the toast just before you serve.

Steps:

• For dipping sauce, combine sugar and vinegar in a small frying pan and stir over a low heat until sugar dissolves.
• Cool, then add reamaining sauce ingredients.
• Season to taste with salt and pepper.
• Dry roast pepper and peppercorns in a small pan over low medium heat for 2 minutes or until fragrant, then cool.
• Grind roasted peppers, salt and rice flour until coarsely ground.
• Place prawns in bowl and sprinkle with pepper mixture to coat.
• Heat oil in wok and fry prawns in batches for 2 minutes or until cooked through.
• Drain on absorbent paper.
• Serve prawns immediately with dipping sauce and lime wedges to the side.

Steps:

• Put the butter in a large saucepan with 225ml water, heating slowly so that the butter melts but the water doesn't evaporate. Remove from the heat and quickly add the flour. Mix until fully incorporated and comes away from the pan, then leave to cool to room temperature. Use a wooden spoon to beat in the eggs, one at a time, until smooth, glossy and the mix drips off the spoon after 3 secs. Beat in the cheese until combined, before folding in the chives, crab and some seasoning.
• Meanwhile, mix the mayonnaise ingredients together, season and set aside. Can be made a day ahead.
• Heat the oil in a deep-fat fryer or large heavy-based saucepan (no more than half full) to 160C or until a piece of bread browns in 40 secs. Using a dessertspoon, scoop spoonfuls of the batter and carefully drop them straight into the hot oil (you will need to cook them in batches so that you don't overcrowd the pan). Fry each batch for 3-4 mins until golden brown, then drain on kitchen paper. Season with sea salt flakes and cayenne pepper. Serve hot with the mayonnaise.

Steps:

• With machine running, drop garlic cloves through feed tube of processor and chop finely. Add sea bass and next 8 ingredients and process just until blended. Transfer to large bowl; stir in crabmeat, shrimp, cilantro and red bell pepper.
• Pour enough oil into heavy large skillet to reach depth of 1 inch; heat oil over medium-high heat to 350°F. Working in batches, drop rounded tablespoonfuls of fritter mixture into hot oil. Fry fritters until golden brown and cooked through, turning occasionally, about 5 minutes. Using slotted spoon, transfer cooked fritters to paper-towel-lined plate; drain.
• Arrange fritters on platter with lettuce leaves. Serve with Chili-Lime Sauce.
