Crab Cakes

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Mix the Ingredients

    In a large bowl, combine the lump crab meat, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, Old Bay seasoning, egg, green onion, and season with salt and pepper. Gently fold in the bread crumbs until just combined.

  2. 2

    Form the Crab Cakes

    Using your hands, form the mixture into patties, about 3 inches in diameter. You should be able to make about 8 crab cakes.

  3. 3

    Chill the Cakes

    Place the crab cakes on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to help them hold their shape while cooking.

  4. 4

    Cook the Crab Cakes

    Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook the crab cakes for about 4-5 minutes on each side or until they are golden brown and heated through.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Serve the crab cakes hot with remoulade sauce on the side.
