Crab Hush Puppies with Curried Honey-Mustard Sauce
(from the Bon Appetit Test Kitchen)
Makes about 30.
Ingredients
1/4 cup Creole (or whole grain) mustard
1/4 cup honey
1 1/4 tsp and 1/2 tsp curry powder
1 cup just-add-water cornbread mix
1/4 cup bottled clam juice
12 oz. fresh lump crabmeat, diced
3/4 cup and 1/4 cup green onions, diced fine
vegetable oil for frying
Instructions
- Stir mustard, honey, and 1 1/4 tsp curry powder in small bowl for dipping sauce.
- Stir cornbread mix, clam juice, and 1/2 tsp curry powder in medium bowl. Mix in crabmeat and 3/4 cup green onions.
- Pour enough oil into medium saucepan to read depth of 1 1/2 inches. Heat oil to 320 to 330 F (use deep-fry thermometer if available). Working in batches, drop batter into oil by heaping teaspoonfuls. Fry until golden and cooked through, 1 to 1 1/2 minutes. Transfer to paper towels to drain.

i swear we share a brain
i've been ogling this recipe for months..but have no occasion (or someone to eat it with)
you're the one who told me about this recipe silly! though I agree it's quite possible we share a brain. the crabmeat is on my grocery list so let's see how it goes. fresh crabmeat is darn expensive!
