Re: Crab Cakes

I have tried this recipe ,once making crab cakes and one time I used shrimp instead of crab meat...it turned out pretty good,if you wanna try its as follows...:)

CRAB CAKES:

*1/3 cup low fat mayo or salad dressing
*1 large egg
*1 1/4 cup soft bread crumbs(thats about 2 slices of bread)
*1tsp ground mustard
*1/4 tsp salt or acc to taste
*1/4 tsp cayenne pepper
*black pepper acc to taste
*2 medium green onions chopped
*3 cans (6 oz each) of crab meat....remove cartilage and flaked
*1/4 cup dry bread crumbs
*vegetable oil

-mix everything together except for the last 2 ingredients.
-shape into patties and coat each one with dry bread crumbs.
-heat oil in a pan on medium heat and cook the patties till golden brown and done...

Re: Crab Cakes

thanks a lot chips. it seems like a lot of bread, is the taste balanced?

Re: Crab Cakes

^ to me they seemed pretty ok...its actually just 2 slices of bread in the patties itself ...you can use little less maybe ....like maybe just one slice...
