Pacific Crab Puffs
- Puffs
- 1 1/2 cups baking mix (like bisquick)
- 1/3 cup grated parmesan cheese
- 1/4 cup finely chopped green onion, including tops
- 1/2 lb crabmeat
- 1 egg, lightly beaten
- 1/3 cup water
- 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1/4 teaspoon liquid hot pepper sauce (Tabasco...I use a little more)
- oil (for frying)
- Mustard Dip
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
- Combine mustard dip ingredients, mix well and stick in the fridge.
- In a bowl, combine baking mix, cheese, and onions; shred crabmeat and add to cheese mixture.
- In another bowl, combine egg, water, Worcestershire and hot pepper sauce; stir this mixture into the crab mixture just until blended.
- Pour oil into a 4-quart pan, or electric frying pan (I use the electric fry pan to keep the oil at a constant temp), to a depth of about 1 1/2 inches; heat to 375u0b0.
- Drop in a teaspoonful of the batter for each puff, cook about 4 at a time, turning as needed, until they're golden brown on all sides, about 1 1/2-2 minutes.
- Lift out with a slotted spoon and drain; keep warm until all are cooked then serve with mustard dip.
- If making ahead, cool the puffs, wrap and freeze; to reheat, place the frozen puffs on a baking sheet and bake, uncovered, at 350u0b0 for 15-20 minutes, or until heated through.
