SHRIMP AND CRAB FRITTERS WITH CHOPPED SALAD AND ROASTED RED PEPPER AND PICKLE VINAIGRETTE
Steps:
- Fill a deep, large skillet with about 1 1/2 inches vegetable or other light-colored oil. Heat the oil over medium heat until a 1-inch cube of bread browns to a deep golden color in a count of 40.
- In a large bowl, stir together the pancake mix and 1 1/4 cups of water to combine. Then, add the shrimp and break up the crab into little bits as you drop it in. Add the scallions, hot sauce, and seafood seasoning and stir to combine. Use 2 tablespoons to drop 2-inch fritters into the pan. Cook small batches of fritters, no more than 6 at a time-do not crowd the pan or you will cause the temperature to drop too far, too fast. The fritters should cook for 2 to 3 minutes on each side to a deep golden color. Remove to a plate lined with paper towels to drain, and season with salt while they are hot. The recipe should yield 16 to 20 pieces, 4 or 5 fritters per portion, depending on the uniformity of size.
- While the fritters are working, place the relish, roasted red pepper, lemon juice, and parsley in a food processor and turn it on. Stream in the EVOO to form the dressing, then stop the processor and season up the dressing with salt and pepper to taste.
- Combine the chopped lettuce with the celery and onions and toss with the vinaigrette. Adjust the seasoning. Arrange the tossed salad on a platter or individual plates. Top the salad with the fritters or serve alongside. Pass the lemon wedges or malt vinegar at the table to squeeze or pour over the fritters, if you wish.
Tips:
- Use fresh, high-quality ingredients: The fresher your ingredients, the better your fritters will taste. Look for plump, firm shrimp and crab, and use a good quality mayonnaise and bread crumbs.
- Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will make the fritters tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Fry the fritters in hot oil: The oil should be hot enough so that the fritters sizzle when they are added. This will help them to cook evenly and prevent them from becoming greasy.
- Drain the fritters on paper towels: This will help to remove any excess oil.
- Serve the fritters hot or warm: Shrimp and crab fritters are best served hot or warm. They can be served with a variety of dipping sauces, such as tartar sauce, cocktail sauce, or remoulade.
Conclusion:
Shrimp and crab fritters are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or main course. They are perfect for parties or potlucks, and they can also be enjoyed as a family meal. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a delicious dish that everyone will love.
