Wild Crab Fritters Ingredients

Wild crab meat

Home Egg
Sea salt
Johnny's seasoning salt
Mrs. Dash seasoning
Black pepper
Homemade mayonnaise
Organic all-purpose flour
Homegrown parsley

Simple Wild Crab Fritters Ingredients

Cut wild crab meat into smaller pieces.

Place cut crab meat into a medium bowl and mix in all the ingredients except the flour and parsley. Then mix in the flour and parsley until all well incorporated.

I prefer for the mixture to be refrigerated for at least an hour, so all the meat can soak in the flavors of the seasonings (this is optional if you're short on time, you may form and sauté fritter right away).

Form fritters into a small patties, about 1.5 inch (4 cm) in diameter. Warm a pan to med/high heat and sauté fritters for a couple of minutes on each side for the patty to hold together (since the crab meat is already cooked) or until light golden brown.

Remove sautéed fritters onto plated lined with paper towels to remove excess oil.

Serve wild crab fritters with your favorite side dish, salad, or beverage.
