And with the arrival of spring, Conway’s has a great variety of seafood to help celebrate the warmer weather outside.
Crabtastic Recipe
We have managed to secure a boat load of the freshest, yummiest cooked and ready to eat crab meat. So Mary from the office has a special recipe that would make a great appetiser - just the thing to start off the party.
Crab Meat Fritters:
Ingredients: (Make about 15 x 35g pieces)
· 2 x Medium Carrots Grated
· 1 x Large Onion Grated
· 1 x small red or yellow capsicum chopped.
· 1 x tomato chopped/diced
· 1 x Egg
· 1 x Crab Meat 227gm jar
· 2 x Tablespoons fresh parsley chopped.
· 2 x Tablespoons Olive Oil.
· ¾ cup Flour plain
· ¼ cup water
· ½ teaspoon Salt
· ½ teaspoon Pepper
· ½ teaspoon Oregano
Method:
1) In a mixing bowl add the grated carrot & onion and the chopped capsicum & tomato.
2) Add crab meat, egg, chopped parsley, olive oil, salt, pepper, oregano, flour, and water.
3) Mix all ingredients thoroughly.
4) Should be a nice thick batter which just covers the ingredients.
5) Place in Fridge and for 15 minutes.
6) In a pan heat light frying oil to temperature.
7) Take a tablespoon full of the mixture and drop into the pan.
8) It takes around 1-2 minutes to fry and obtain a golden colour and flip it over to fry the other side.
9) When ready place on a place with kitchen towel so that the excess oil has been withdrawn from the Crab Meat Fritter.
10) When frying is complete, you can plate up and serve with a tartare sauce or mayonnaise and salad.
