Cooking Ingredients
Method
Preparation of Crab Cakes

Mix the Ingredients
In a large mixing bowl, combine the fresh lump crab meat, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, Old Bay seasoning, and salt and pepper. Gently fold the ingredients together to avoid breaking up the crab meat.

Add the Bindings
Add the eggs and bread crumbs to the crab mixture. Gently mix until just combined, ensuring the crab meat is not overworked. Fold in the finely chopped green onions.

Chill the Mixture
Cover the mixture with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to help the mixture firm up for easier shaping.

Form the Cakes
After chilling, remove the crab mixture from the refrigerator. With your hands, form the mixture into patties, about 3 inches in diameter and 1 inch thick.

Heat the Oil
In a large skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat until hot but not smoking.

Cook the Crab Cakes
Place the formed crab cakes into the hot oil, cooking in batches if necessary to avoid overcrowding. Fry for 4-5 minutes on each side or until golden brown and crispy. Use a spatula to gently flip them.

Drain and Serve
Once cooked, transfer the crab cakes to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil. Serve hot with lemon wedges and tartar sauce on the side.
