Crab sticks in mayonnaise batter - FAQ About Ingredients, Baking Time and Storage

Can I substitute chicken eggs with a vegan alternative in this recipe?

Yes, you can use a flax egg (1 tbsp ground flaxseed + 3 tbsp water per egg) or commercial egg replacer for a vegan version, but the batter texture may be slightly less crispy.

How long can I store leftover crab sticks in mayo batter after frying?

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days. Reheat in a toaster oven or air fryer (not microwave) to maintain crispiness.

What dipping sauces pair well with these crab sticks?

Try sweet chili sauce, garlic aioli, sriracha mayo, or a simple lemon-dill yogurt sauce for complementary flavors.

Can I bake these instead of frying for a healthier option?

Yes! Brush with oil and bake at 200°C (400°F) for 15-20 minutes, flipping halfway. They'll be less crispy but still delicious.

How can I make this gluten-free?

Use gluten-free breadcrumbs and a 1:1 GF flour blend. Ensure your crab sticks are GF as some contain wheat.

Can I use this batter for other proteins or vegetables?

Absolutely! This batter works well for fish fillets, shrimp, zucchini slices, or mushroom caps with minor seasoning adjustments.

Why dredge in flour before dipping in batter?

The flour layer helps the batter adhere better to the smooth surface of crab sticks, preventing it from sliding off during frying.

How do I prevent the batter from becoming too thick?

If thick, gradually add 1-2 tsp more water until it reaches a pancake batter consistency that coats the back of a spoon.

Can I prepare the batter ahead of time?

Best used immediately, but you can refrigerate for up to 1 hour. Stir well before use as separation may occur.
