French Fried Jimmy Crabs

Ingredients:
1 pound backfin crab meat
1 scant cup flour
1 scant cup milk
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon celery seed
2 teaspoon parsley
1 egg
1 teaspoon Old Bay seasoning
1 tablespoon vegetable oil

Directions:
Enough vegetable oil for deep frying
Combine all ingredients except crab, crab meat, and vegetable oil to make a batter. Stir one tablespoon
of vegetable oil into the batter. Fill crab crevices where innards were removed with crab meat and
press the crab meat firmly into the crevice to secure. Holding each stuffed crab with tongs, dip into
batter. Then place into the deep fryer filled with very hot vegetable oil. Completely cover the crab and
fry individually for seven minutes or until golden.
