Deep-fry turkey, in batches, 3-4 minutes or until golden brown and cooked. Using a slotted spoon, transfer to paper towels to drain. Place on a serving plate.

Whisk mayonnaise, 3 tsp harissa and lime juice in a small bowl. Season to taste. Sprinkle turkey with scallion. Serve with mayonnaise mixture and lime wedges.
