    List of Ingredients




    Crab Cakes


    2 pounds lump crabmeat, picked over for cartilage
    1 cup dried breadcrumbs
    1 cup mayonnaise, store-bought or homemade
    2 large eggs
    1 red bell pepper, stem, seeds, and ribs removed, cut into 1/8-inch dice
    1 yellow bell pepper, stem, seeds, and ribs removed, cut into 1/8-inch dice
    1/2 cup fresh cilantro leaves, chopped
    4 scallions, chopped
    Coarse salt and freshly ground black pepper

    Recipe




    1. Preheat oven to 250°. In a large bowl, combine crabmeat, breadcrumbs, mayonnaise, eggs, peppers, cilantro, and scallions; mix well. Season with salt and pepper. Shape mixture into twenty-four 2-inch-round patties.

    2. Heat 1/2-inch of oil in a large skillet over medium high heat until hot but not smoking. Working in batches, add crab cakes, and cook until golden brown, about 2 to 3 minutes on each side. Transfer to a paper towel-lined baking sheet to drain, and place in oven to keep warm. Repeat with remaining crab cakes.

    Makes 24
