Crab Hush Puppies With Tartar Sauce

• 1 cup mayonnaise
• 1/4 cup finely chopped sweet pickles
• 1/4 cup chopped flat-leaf parsley
• 1 1/2 tablespoons chopped drained capers
• 2 teaspoons grainy mustard
• 1 teaspoon grated lemon
• 2 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
• 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
• About 6 cups vegetable oil for frying
• 1 garlic clove
• 2 large eggs
• 1 cup plus 2 tablespoon well-shaken buttermilk (not powdered)
• 3 scallions, finely chopped
• 1 cup cornmeal (preferably stone-ground)
• 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 1 cup jumbo lump crabmeat (about 7 ounces), picked over
• Equipment: a deep-fat thermometer

1. Stir together all ingredients and season with salt and pepper.
2. Preheat oven to 200u0b0F.
3. Heat 2 inches oil to 375u0b0F in a wide 5-quart heavy pot over medium heat. While oil heats, mince and mash garlic to a paste with a pinch of salt, then whisk together with eggs, buttermilk, and scallions in a bowl.
4. Whisk together cornmeal, flour, baking powder, 3/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper in a large bowl, then stir in buttermilk mixture until just combined. Stir in crabmeat.
5. Working in batches of 10, carefully drop tablespoons of batter into oil and fry, turning occasionally, until golden-brown, about 3 minutes per batch. Transfer to a paper-towel-lined baking sheet and keep warm in oven. Return oil to 375u0b0F between batches.
6. Serve hush puppies with tartar sauce.
