Crab and Lobster Cakes

Method

Preparation and Cooking

  1. 1

    Prepare the Mixture

    In a large bowl, combine the crab meat, lobster meat, chopped celery, chopped onion, shredded cheese, mayonnaise, Panko bread crumbs, egg, salt, and black pepper. Mix gently until all ingredients are well combined.

  2. 2

    Form the Cakes

    Using your hands, form the mixture into small patties, about 2-3 inches in diameter. Place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

  3. 3

    Cook the Cakes

    In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Once hot, add the crab and lobster cakes (in batches if necessary) and cook for 4-5 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crispy.

  4. 4

    Serve

    Transfer the cooked cakes to a serving plate. Drizzle with roasted red pepper aioli and lemon garlic aioli before serving.
