Categories     Breakfast

Time 45m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 18

1 pounds (16 ounces) fresh, frozen or canned crabmeat, rinsed and drained
1 1/2 cups fresh bread crumbs or one large baking potato, cooked and grated
2 large eggs
1/4 cup red or yellow bell pepper, finely chopped
1/4 cup light mayonnaise
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1/4 cup flour (for dredging)
1 1/2 cups Panko or traditional bread crumbs, optional
1/4 cup canola or olive oil
8 large eggs, poached
1/4 cup water or skim milk
1 tablespoon lemon juice, freshly squeezed
1 slice of white sandwich bread, torn into pieces
1/4 cup butter, melted
Salt to taste
3 fresh basil leaves

Steps:

  • Rinse and drain crabmeat well; remove any cartilage. In a large bowl, gently mix together the crab, bread crumbs, one egg, red pepper, mayonnaise, mustard, and salt and pepper to taste.
  • Form into 8 patties, adding a little extra mayo if needed to help the mixture hold together. Place a small amount of flour in a shallow dish and season with salt and pepper. Put the second egg into another shallow dish and mix with a fork. Put the Panko in a third shallow dish.
  • Dredge patties in flour. For extra crispy crab cakes, dip them in beaten egg to coat, then dredge in Panko or breadcrumbs. Cook patties 5 minutes per side or until golden brown.
  • Meanwhile, pour water and lemon juice over the bread cubes; let stand for 5 minutes until the bread absorbs all the liquid and becomes mushy. In a blender or food processor, mix the soaked bread until it turns into a paste. While processor is running drizzle in warm melted butter; process until mixture thickens slightly. Taste and add salt if necessary. Add basil leaves and pulse a few times until the basil is chopped and incorporated.
  • Serve poached eggs on top of the crab cakes, lightly drizzled with hollandaise sauce.

Tips:

  • Use fresh crab meat for the best flavor. If using frozen crab meat, thaw it completely before using.
  • Be sure to drain the crab meat well before adding it to the quiche filling. This will help prevent the quiche from becoming watery.
  • Use a good quality Gruyère cheese for the best flavor. If you can't find Gruyère, you can substitute another type of hard cheese, such as cheddar or Parmesan.
  • Don't overcook the quiche. The quiche is done when the center is just set and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Let the quiche cool for at least 15 minutes before serving. This will help the quiche to set and make it easier to slice.
