Ingredients
Preparation
* Note: See the "Emerils Essence Information" recipe which is included in this collection. In a saute pan, heat the olive oil. When the oil is hot, saute the shallots, onions, peppers, and garlic until slightly wilted, about 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from the heat and turn into a mixing bowl. Stir in the mayonnaise, Creole mustard, Crystal hot sauce, Worcestershire sauce, crab meat and parsley. Season with salt and pepper. Stuff each crab with 3 ounces of filling. Dredge the soft-shells in the seasoned flour. Dip into the egg wash, removing any excess. Dredge in the seasoned bread crumbs, crusting each side completely. In a saute pan, pour in enough oil to fill 1/4 of the pan. When the oil is hot, add the soft-shells in batches. Fry for 2 to 3 minutes on each side or until the soft-shells are golden brown and heated through the center. Remove from the pan and drain on a paper-lined plate. Continue frying until all the soft-shells are fried. Season with Emerils Essence. Spoon the tartar sauce in the center of the plate and around the rim. Place two soft-shells against each other in the center of the sauce. Pile the leeks on top of the soft-shells. Garnish with the cheese, chives, and peppers. This recipe yields 4 servings.
