Fish and Chicks
- 5 large eggs
- 3 tablespoons mayonnaise
- 1 teaspoon dijon mustard
- 1/4 teaspoon Old Bay Seasoning, plus more for topping
- 3 tablespoons frozen corn kernels, thawed
- 2 teaspoons chopped fresh chives, plus more for topping
- Kosher salt
- 3 to 4 small red-skinned potatoes
- Vegetable oil, for frying
- 3 tablespoons lump crabmeat
- Put the eggs in a small saucepan and cover with water by 1/2 inch.
- Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, then remove from the heat, cover and let stand 10 minutes.
- Remove the eggs with a slotted spoon and transfer to a bowl of ice water to cool, about 5 minutes.
- Carefully peel the eggs; halve lengthwise and scoop out the yolks into a medium bowl.
- Add the mayonnaise, mustard and Old Bay to the yolks and whisk until smooth.
- Stir in the corn and chives; season with salt.
- Transfer the mixture to a pastry bag fitted with a large star tip (big enough for the corn kernels to fit through).
- Pipe into the egg white halves.
- Refrigerate until ready to serve.
- Slice the potatoes into 10 rounds, slightly less than 1/2 inch thick.
- Heat 1/2 inch vegetable oil in a medium skillet over medium heat until it registers 300 degrees F on a deep-fry thermometer.
- Fry the potato rounds 4 minutes, then remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.
- Increase the oil temperature to 375 degrees F; fry the potatoes again until golden brown and crisp, about 3 more minutes.
- Drain on clean paper towels and season with salt.
- Place a deviled egg on each fried potato round.
- Top with the crabmeat, some chives and more Old Bay.
