Crab Cake Ingredients

Method

Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Make the Crab Cake Mixture

    In a large bowl, combine the crab meat, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, Old Bay seasoning, breadcrumbs, egg, salt, and pepper. Mix gently until just combined, being careful not to break up the crab meat too much.

  2. 2

    Form the Crab Cakes

    Divide the mixture into equal portions and form into patties, about 1 inch thick.

  3. 3

    Cook the Crab Cakes

    Heat a skillet over medium heat and add a little oil. Cook the crab cakes for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Sandwich

    Toast the brioche buns lightly. Place a crab cake on the bottom half of each bun, top with lettuce and tomato, then cover with the other half of the bun.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Serve immediately with your choice of sauce or condiment.
