Crab Cake Mixture

Method

Crab Cake Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Crab Cake Mixture

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the lump crab meat, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, green onions, red bell pepper, garlic, breadcrumbs, egg, Old Bay seasoning, salt, and black pepper.

  2. 2

    Mix the Ingredients

    Gently fold the mixture together, being careful not to break up the crab meat too much. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

Voodoo Sauce Preparation

  1. 3

    Combine Sauce Ingredients

    In a small bowl, mix together the mayonnaise, hot sauce, lemon juice, garlic powder, paprika, and salt until well combined.

  2. 4

    Chill the Sauce

    Cover the bowl and refrigerate the sauce for at least 30 minutes to enhance the flavor.

Cooking the Crab Cakes

  1. 5

    Form the Crab Cakes

    Once the mixture has chilled, take about 1/2 cup of the mixture and form it into a patty. Repeat until all the mixture is used.

  2. 6

    Heat the Oil

    In a large skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat until hot.

  3. 7

    Cook the Crab Cakes

    Add the crab cakes to the skillet, cooking for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown and crispy. Avoid overcrowding the skillet.

  4. 8

    Drain and Serve

    Once cooked, transfer the crab cakes to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil. Serve hot with the Voodoo sauce on the side.
