Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup chopped green onions
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1/2 teaspoon dry mustard
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 6 ounces shelled cooked crab
  • 2 large eggs
  • 3/4 cup panko (Japanese-style bread crumbs), divided
  • About 4 cups vegetable oil for frying
  • Hot sauce

Instructions

  2. Form mixture into 8 balls and set them on an oiled baking sheet. Whisk remaining egg with 2 tbsp. water on a small plate. Put remaining 1/2 cup panko on another plate. Dip balls in egg, then roll in panko.
