Crab Cake Ingredients

Method

Cooking Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Mixture

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

  2. 2

    Form the Cakes

    Shape the mixture into patties, about 2-3 inches in diameter. Place them on a plate or baking sheet.

  3. 3

    Chill the Cakes

    Refrigerate the patties for at least 30 minutes to firm up.

  4. 4

    Cook the Cakes

    Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add the crab cakes and cook for 4-5 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crispy.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Remove the crab cakes from the skillet and drain on paper towels. Serve hot with your favorite dipping sauce.
