Yield Serves 6

Number Of Ingredients 15

1/2 cup fresh lime juice
6 tablespoons fish sauce (nam pla)
1/4 cup pure maple syrup
3 jalapeño chillies, seeded, chopped
2 garlic cloves, chopped
1/4 cup mayonnaise
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1/2 teaspoon grated lemon peel
8 ounces fresh crabmeat, drained
2 grapefruits
2 oranges
1 1/2 cupspanko (japanese breadcrumbs)
2 firm but ripe avocados, halved, pitted, peeled, sliced
2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives

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.

I thought these fritters were just okay. They weren't bad, but they weren't anything special either.

These fritters were a bit too spicy for me, but they were still very good. I would recommend them to others who enjoy spicy food.

These fritters were a bit too expensive to make. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.

The fritters were a bit too greasy for my liking. I think I'll try baking them next time instead of frying them.

I found that the fritters were a bit bland. I think I'll add some more seasoning next time.
