Ingredients:
3 tbsp Salted butter
1/2 medium Onion, finely chopped
1 each Clove garlic, finely chopped
1/4 cup Dry sherry
6 each To 7 ounces cooked or canned crabmeat, picked over and flaked
1 tbsp Finely chopped fresh parsley
1 cup All-purpose flour
1 tsp Baking powder
1 tsp Salt
1 tsp Freshly ground black pepper
4 large Eggs, lightly beaten
Peanut or vegetable oil for frying
Fresh lime juice to taste

foam, add the onion and garlic and cook, stirring, 3 to 5 minutes.
Add the sherry, crabmeat, and parsley and cook, stirring, until the
onion is tender, another 5 minutes. 2. In a large bowl, sift the
flour together with the baking powder, salt, and pepper. Pour in the
eggs and mix by hand until the batter is smooth. Add the
onion-and-crab mixture and stir to blend. Refrigerate the batter,
covered, at least 2 hours. 3. Preheat the oven to 250 degrees. In a
large heavy-bottomed skillet or deep fryer over medium-high heat,
heat 2 to 3 inches of oil to 375 degrees, or until a drop of batter

golden brown. Taste for seasoning and adjust if necessary in the
remaining batter, then drop the mixture by tablespoonfuls into the
hot oil, and fry the fritters until golden brown on all sides,
turning with a slotted spoon. Do not fry too many at once, or the oil
temperature will fall and they will be soggy rather than crisp. Place
the fritters on a paper-towel-lined platter in the oven until all
have been cooked, and serve hot, sprinkled with lime juice. Makes 20
