Method

Prepare Crab Cakes

  1. 1

    Mix Ingredients

    In a large bowl, combine crab meat, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, Old Bay seasoning, green onions, beaten egg, breadcrumbs, salt, and pepper. Mix until well combined.

  2. 2

    Form Cakes

    Shape the mixture into patties, about 1/2 inch thick. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to help them hold their shape.

  3. 3

    Fry Cakes

    Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat. Fry the crab cakes for 4-5 minutes on each side, or until golden brown. Remove and drain on paper towels.

Make Sauce Gribiche

  1. 4

    Combine Ingredients

    In a bowl, mix mayonnaise, chopped hard-boiled eggs, capers, cornichons, parsley, lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Stir until well combined.

Assemble Sandwich

  1. 5

    Build Sandwich

    On each potato bun, place a lettuce leaf, a fried crab cake, a slice of tomato, a generous spoonful of sauce gribiche, and dill pickle slices. Top with the other half of the bun and serve.
