  • Yield

    Makes about 30

Ingredients

1/4 cup Creole mustard
1/4 cup honey
1 3/4 teaspoons curry powder, divided
1 cup just-add-water cornbread mix
1/4 cup bottled clam juice
12 ounces fresh lump crabmeat, diced
1 cup finely chopped green onions, divided
Vegetable oil (for frying)

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Stir mustard, honey, and 1 1/4 teaspoons curry powder in small bowl for dipping sauce.

    Step 2

    Stir cornbread mix, clam juice, and 1/2 teaspoon curry powder in medium bowl. Mix in crabmeat and 3/4 cup onions.

    Step 3

    Pour enough oil into medium saucepan to reach depth of 1 1/2 inches. Attach deep-fry thermometer to side of pan and heat oil over medium heat to 320°F to 330°F.
