Crab Cakes

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Mixture

    In a large bowl, combine crab meat, mashed avocado, dill weed, lemon juice, beaten egg, bread crumbs, salt, and black pepper. Mix gently until all ingredients are well incorporated.

  2. 2

    Form the Cakes

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

  3. 3

    Heat the Oil

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

  4. 4

    Fry the Cakes

    Carefully add the crab cakes to the skillet, cooking for about 4-5 minutes on each side or until golden brown and crispy.

  5. 5

    Drain and Serve

    Once cooked, remove the crab cakes from the skillet and place them on paper towels to drain excess oil. Serve warm.
