Steps:
- For the crab hush puppies: In a medium bowl, whisk the cornmeal, flour, baking powder, kosher salt, sugar and garlic powder. In a separate small bowl, whisk the buttermilk and egg. Make a well in the dry ingredients and begin to gently stir in the buttermilk mixture (I use a wooden spoon). Do not overmix. Gently stir in the crab and scallions until just mixed.
- For the cilantro-jalapeno dip: Combine the cilantro, mayonnaise, garlic powder, sea salt, pepper, reserved scallion greens and jalapeno in a blender and blend until pureed. Refrigerate until serving time. This can be made a day in advance.
- Heat several inches of canola oil in a Dutch oven to 350 degrees F. (There should be enough oil for the hush puppies to be completely submerged.) Use a 1-inch ice cream scoop to drop the batter into the hot oil in batches. Fry until deep golden brown, about 4 minutes. While the hush puppies are hot, sprinkle with a pinch of sea salt. Serve immediately with the dip.

Steps:
- For relish:
- Toss first 7 ingredients in medium bowl. Season relish with salt and freshly ground black pepper. DO AHEAD: Can be made 2 hours ahead. Cover and chill.
- For fish:
- Sprinkle fish on both sides with salt and freshly ground pepper. Heat oil in heavy large skillet over medium-high heat. Place fish, skin side down, in skillet. Cook until skin is brown, occasionally flattening with spatula to prevent curling, about 4 minutes. Turn fish over. Cook until just opaque in center, about 1 minute.
- Using slotted spoon, mound relish on plates. Top with fish, skin side up. Arrange hush puppies alongside and serve.
Tips:
- Use fresh jalapeños for the best flavor. If you don't have fresh jalapeños, you can use canned or pickled jalapeños, but the flavor will not be as good.
- Be sure to remove the seeds and ribs from the jalapeños before chopping them. This will help to reduce the heat of the peppers, and make them more palatable.
- If you like your hush puppies extra spicy, you can add a pinch of cayenne pepper to the batter.
- Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing will make the hush puppies tough.
- Be sure to heat the oil to the correct temperature before frying the hush puppies. If the oil is not hot enough, the hush puppies will not cook through properly.
- Serve the hush puppies hot with your favorite dipping sauce.
