1 cup cracker meal
1 egg, beaten
1/2 cup milk
12 ounces lump crab meat, picked over
1 teaspoon crab boil seasoning
1 tablespoon baking powder
handful flat leaf parsley, chopped
1 lemon, zested

several drops Worcestershire sauce
several drops hot pepper sauce
2 tablespoons mayonnaise or ranch dressing
oil for frying
RED PEPPER SAUCE:
8 ounces jar roasted red bell peppers, drained
1 cup mayonnaise
1/2 cup prepared chili sauce
Recipe
Place cracker meal in a bowl and make a well in the center of the meal. Beat egg with milk and pour into well. Moisten cracker meal and combine liquid with meal using the tines of a fork. Add crab meat, crab boil seasoning, baking powder, parsley, lemon zest, celery, Worcestershire, hot pepper sauce, and mayonnaise to the bowl. Mix all ingredients well and form into 8 (3-inch) patties.
Add 1/2-inch vegetable or canola oil to a skillet and heat to medium high temperature. Fry cakes 3 minutes on each side and drain on paper towel lined plate. Cook 4 cakes at a time, so that oil temp does not drop too low. For red pepper sauce, combine drained red peppers in a food processor bowl with mayonnaise and chili sauce. Pulse/grind the ingredients into a smooth sauce. Transfer sauce to a small serving dish. Serve crab cakes with sauce and lemon wedges. Yield: 4 servings
