1️⃣ Prepare the filling: In a bowl, mix the lump crab meat, chopped celery, green onions, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, garlic powder, Old Bay seasoning, salt, and pepper. Stir gently to combine without breaking up the crab too much.

2️⃣ Assemble the egg rolls: Lay an egg roll wrapper on a clean surface. Place about 2 tbsp of the crab filling in the center. Brush the edges with a beaten egg, then fold the bottom over the filling, tuck in the sides, and roll tightly to seal. Repeat with remaining wrappers.

3️⃣ Fry the egg rolls: Heat oil in a deep pan to 350°F (175°C). Fry the egg rolls in batches for 2-3 minutes per side or until golden brown and crispy. Drain on paper towels.

4️⃣ Make the lemon dip: In a small bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, garlic powder, honey (if using), salt, and pepper.

5️⃣ Serve and enjoy: Serve the crispy crab cake egg rolls hot with the lemon dip on the side. Garnish with fresh chives or extra lemon zest for a zesty touch!
