List of Ingredients
Maryland Crab Cakes
1/2 tsp. garlic minced
1 tbsp. onion minced
1 tbsp. celery diced
2 tbsp. mayonnaise
1 whole egg
1/8 tsp. salt
1/8 tsp. black pepper
1 tsp. Dijon mustard
1 tsp. Old Bay Seasoning
1/4 cup bread crumbs
1 pound lump crab meat
2 tbsp. oil for sauteing
Recipe
In a large stainless-steel bowl, combine all ingredients except
crab meat and bread crumbs.
Using gloved hands, gently mix in crab meat, then add bread crumbs.
Spread a thin layer of plain bread crumbs on your work surface.
Form crab mixture into equal balls, approximately two inches in
diameter. Place on crumbs.
Gently flatten the ball of crab mixture and round the edges. Form
cakes about one-half inch thick and three inches round.
Refrigerate.
In a saute pan, melt 2 tbsp. of oil until hot. Gently slide in crab
cakes 2 at a time.
Brown on one side approximately two-to-three minutes. Turn and
brown on the other side. Turn down heat to simmer and cook crab
cakes another 5-8 minutes.
Makes 4 servings
Chef's Tip:
While you may be tempted to increase the amount of bread crumbs
used, you'll receive the best sauté results with the thin layer as
described above
