Crab Cake Sandwich Ingredients
Method
Instructions
Prepare the Crab Cake Mixture
In a large bowl, combine the jumbo lump crab meat, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, Old Bay seasoning, bread crumbs, egg, salt, and black pepper. Gently mix until just combined.
Form Crab Cakes
Divide the mixture into two equal portions and form each into a patty. Place the patties on a plate and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to firm up.
Fry the Crab Cakes
In a large skillet, heat vegetable oil over medium heat. Once hot, carefully add the crab cakes and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until golden brown. Remove and drain on paper towels.
Prepare Fried Green Tomatoes
In another skillet, fry the green tomato slices until golden brown on both sides. Remove and drain on paper towels.
Assemble the Sandwich
On each burger bun, spread a layer of tartar sauce. Place a lettuce leaf, followed by a crab cake, a slice of fried green tomato, and a slice of fresh tomato. Top with the other half of the bun.
Serve
Serve the crab cake sandwiches hot with additional tartar sauce on the side.
