Fried Soft Shell Crabs & Seafood Boil
Ingredients:
asparagus, green beans, red potatoes, 1 LB shrimp, soft crabs, sweet
corn,
old bay, flour, 2 eggs, oil, yellow mustard
Boil 3 quarts of water with old bay to taste. After water boils add red
potatoes (they take about 12 mins to cook). Add soft crabs for 3-4 mins or
until
crabs have a red color around the edges. Remove crabs. Dip crabs in
beaten
eggs. Dip crabs in flour. Put crabs in hot oil (just enough to cover the
bottom of the frying pan). Fry 3 mins on each side adding a little yellow
mustard
to the top of the crabs before flipping. Remove from heat and place on
paper
towel.
After potatoes have boiled for 7 mins, add shucked corn to pot. After
another 2 mins, add asparagus and green beans. After another minute, add
shrimp.
Shrimp take about 2 1/2 mins and after that everything will be done at the
same
time. Strain, present and enjoy. Clams, lobster and oysters may also be
added if desired.
