Crab Corn And Coriander Fritters Recipes

CORN AND CRAB FRITTERS

Steps:

• Melt butter in a large skillet; add vegetables, and sauté 5 minutes.
• Combine flour and next 5 ingredients in a large bowl.
• Lightly beat egg yolks; add buttermilk to egg yolks. Stir sauteed vegetables and buttermilk mixture into flour mixture. Fold in crabmeat.
• Beat egg whites at high speed until soft peaks form. Gently fold half of beaten egg white into crabmeat batter. Fold in remaining beaten egg white.
• Heat 2" oil to 375º.
• Shape 2 tablespoons batter into a fritter shape and drop into hot oil 4 or 5 at a time. Cook 3 minutes or until golden on all sides, turning once. Drain on paper towels.
• Serve with Spicy Dipping Sauce.

CRAB & CORN CAKES WITH CHILLI DIPPING SAUCE

Steps:

• Tip the egg, flour, garlic and coriander stalks into a food processor with a third of the corn. Whizz to a smooth paste. Mix with the remaining corn, crab, half the spring onions and some seasoning.
• Stir together the sauce ingredients. Cover a tray with kitchen paper. Heat 5cm depth oil in a large, heavy saucepan - it's ready when a cube of bread browns in 30-40 secs. Drop in dessertspoons of the corn mix, then fry for 2-3 mins, turning, until golden and crisp. Lift onto kitchen paper. Keep warm. Repeat with the remaining mix. Serve the hot cakes sprinkled with the last of the spring onion and the dipping sauce alongside.

CORN AND CORIANDER FRITTERS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 180°C (350°F).
• Saute the onion and ginger in a little oil until soft and translucent.
• Place the flour, 1 cup of the corn kernels, onion, ginger, cumin, water and eggs into a food processor and process until well combined.
• Place mixture into a large mixing bowl and stir through the remaining corn, shallots, chilli, and coriander and season the mixture with sea salt and black pepper.
• In a non-stick fry pan place a little oil and set over high heat.
• Using a 30 ml (1 oz) ladle cook fritters 2 at a time, approx 1 minute per side or until golden.
• Transfer to an oven proof rack and tray and cook for a further 3-4 minutes in the oven.

CRAB AND CORN FRITTERS WITH FRESH CORN MAYO

Steps:

• Melt the butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Add the corn and cook, stirring as needed, for about 2 minutes. Remove from the heat.
• In a medium bowl, sift the flour, baking powder, sugar, salt, and cayenne together.
• In a small bowl, whisk the milk, eggs, hot sauce, and Worcestershire together to combine. Make a well in the dry ingredients and pour the wet into it. Combine gently with a whisk, then, with a rubber spatula, gently fold in the corn and crabmeat, taking care to not break up the lumps of crab.
• Add enough oil to come halfway up the side of a deep-sided cast iron skillet or Dutch oven or to the fill line of an electric fryer and preheat to 325 degrees F.
• Working in batches of 6 to 8 and using a 2-tablespoon scoop (like a melon baller or ice cream scoop), carefully drop the fritter batter into the oil. You don't want the fritters browning too fast, so don't allow the temperature of the oil to go higher than 325 degrees F or to drop below 300 degrees F; adjust the heat under the pot as needed. Cover the pot with a splatter screen or the vented top if using an electric fryer to protect yourself, as individual corn kernels will pop and fly if they make contact with the hot oil. As the fritters float to the top, roll them over in the hot oil to brown them evenly. When they are golden on all sides, which will take 5 to 6 minutes per batch, use tongs, a slotted spoon, or a spider to transfer them to paper towels to drain. Season with salt immediately so the salt sticks to the fritters, if desired. Repeat until you use up all the batter.
• Serve hot with the Fresh Corn Mayo.
