Categories     Breakfast

Time 10m

Number Of Ingredients 6

4 large eggs less 1 egg white
1/3 cup fresh crab meat ((about 1.5 oz or 45 grams))
olive oil
salt
black pepper
thinly sliced chives or scallions ((for garnishing, optional))

Steps:

  • Crack 4 large eggs less 1 egg white into a bowl. It means we need 4 egg yolks and 3 egg whites. Beat well. Add a teaspoon of olive oil, a pinch of salt and stir to combine. Set aside.
  • Place a nonstick pan over medium heat. Add some olive oil. Once the oil is hot, add fresh crab meat. Stir, break the crab meat into smaller pieces and briefly sauté to remove excess moisture. Season with salt to taste.
  • Spread the crab meat pieces evenly and pour beaten eggs into the pan. Lower the heat to low-medium low and wait for a few seconds to let the eggs set around the edges.
  • Once you see the eggs start to set around the edges, use a spatula to pull the set outer edges towards the center. Keep doing that to gather all the egg curds in the center of your pan.
  • Quickly turn the pile of egg curds over so that any undercooked parts can get some heat. Swirl and move around to break up the scrambled eggs slightly.
  • The eggs will continue to cook from residual heat, so remove it from the pan when it's 90-95% cooked to your liking to avoid overcooking. Sprinkle black pepper and chives/scallions (if using) on top and serve immediately.

"ALL CRABMEAT" CRAB CAKES



Provided by Food Network

Yield 8 cakes

Number Of Ingredients 20

1 1/2 cups cornflake crumbs
1-pound jumbo lump crabmeat
1 1/2 teaspoons homemade mayonnaise, or best-quality store-bought
1 1/2 teaspoons Old Bay seasoning
1/3 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 large egg yolk
1 tablespoon red bell pepper, cored, seeded, finely diced
1 tablespoon yellow bell pepper, cored, seeded and finely diced
1 1/2 teaspoons fresh chives
1/4 teaspoon minced jalapeno pepper
2 teaspoons unsalted butter
True Orange Sabayon Sauce, recipe follows
Tartar sauce or spicy honey mustard sauce
2 large egg yolks
1 large egg
1 teaspoon grated orange zest
2 tablespoons fresh orange juice
2 tablespoons white wine
6 dashes hot pepper sauce
1/2 teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Distribute the cornflake crumbs on a platter. Combine all the remaining ingredients except the butter and accompaniment in a nonreactive bowl and toss gently until well blended. Make 8 crab cakes no more than 3 inches thick, pressing the ingredients together well.
  • Place the cakes on the crumbs and coat lightly on all sides. Put the cakes on a baking sheet and dot each with a bit of butter.
  • Bake the cakes until just hot, about 6 minutes, and serve with one of the accompaniments.
  • Combine all the ingredients in a medium nonreactive bowl. Set up a double boiler, adding 3 inches of water to the bottom pot. Bring to the boil. Whisk the ingredients until frothy. Pour into the double boiler and continue to whisk until the sauce is lightly thickened, about 7 minutes. If the sauce seems to be thickening too rapidly, lift the top pot off the heat, whisking continuously to disperse heat. Return the pan to the double boiler and continue whisking until done.

SLOW SCRAMBLED EGGS WITH CRABMEAT AND CHIVES



Slow Scrambled Eggs with Crabmeat and Chives image

Provided by Food Network

Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon unsalted butter
8 whole eggs, beaten with 2 tablespoons whipping cream
Salt and pepper, to taste
1 cup fresh lump crabmeat, picked over for shells
2 tablespoons fresh snipped chives
1 cup fresh wild mushrooms, sliced
2 teaspoons butter
Salt and pepper
8 toast points

Steps:

  • Melt 2 tablespoons butter over medium-low heat in small pan and pour in eggs. With a wooden spoon or rubber spatula, stir the eggs constantly, lifting up as they start to cook to keep the uncooked eggs on the bottom of the pan. This process takes much patience and a lot more time than regular scrambled eggs. Keep stirring until eggs, finally start to thicken and become creamy in texture. You should not be able to discern any big pieces, just one homogenous mixture. When eggs are cooked, but still creamy, stir in 2 more tablespoons butter, and season with salt and pepper. While eggs are finishing, melt the teaspoon of butter in another pan and gently warm up the crabmeat. Season with salt and pepper and mix in the chives. Divide the eggs among 4 ramekins, egg shells or toast points and top with the warm crabmeat. This dish is even more heavenly with the addition of minced or shaved truffles. Or substitute wild mushroom for the crabmeat.;
  • WILD MUSHROOMS:
  • Saute mushrooms lightly in butter. Season with salt and pepper. Serve over eggs.;

CRAB CAKE & EGG SCRAMBLE



Crab Cake & Egg Scramble image

I had a small little crab cake left from Recipe#250972 By Recipe Reader and wanted to do something different with it besides just re-heating it. So the cake, and a few other little ingredients became a very enjoyable breakfast. Unless you use the same recipe as I did for the Crab Cake, you may not get the same taste as I did. But everyone likes to put their own spin on recipes, so that's o.k. :) If desired, serve with your favorite bread or English muffin toasted. Posted to Food.com (a.k.a.

SCRAMBLED EGGS WITH CRAB AND ASPARAGUS TIPS



Scrambled Eggs with Crab and Asparagus Tips image

_**Editor's note:** The recipe below is excerpted from_ [Eggs](http://www.ecookbooks.com/products.html?affiliateID=16283&item=08244) by Michel Roux. _To read more about the book, [click here](/features/news/dailydish/041406)._ For optimum flavor, use the meat from a freshly cooked live crab.

Provided by Michel Roux

Yield Makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

36 small asparagus spears
salt and freshly ground pepper
6 1/2 tbsp (80g) butter
8 eggs, beaten
2 tbsp light or heavy cream
8 cooked shelled crab claws, or 5 1/2 oz (160g) cooked white crab meat
1 tsp (5g) chives, cut into short lengths

Steps:

  • Peel the asparagus stalks thinly with a vegetable peeler and cut off the tips leaving about 1 1/2-inch (4-cm) stalk attached to them. Cook in boiling salted water for 2 to 3 minutes; the asparagus should be firm but not crunchy. Refresh in cold water and keep at room temperature.
  • Melt the butter in a heavy pan, add the beaten eggs, and scramble (click here for instuctions). Add the cream at the end of cooking and season with salt and pepper.
  • Steam the crabmeat or shelled claws for 2 to 3 minutes to heat them, then add the asparagus and steam for another minute, until just hot.
  • Divide the scrambled eggs between 4 plates. Place 2 crab claws or a pile of crabmeat in the center, arrange the asparagus tips around the crab, scatter with the chives, and serve at once.

Tips:

  • Use fresh crabmeat for the best flavor. You can find it in the seafood section of most grocery stores.
  • If you're using frozen crabmeat, thaw it completely before cooking. You can thaw it in the refrigerator overnight or by placing it in a bowl of cold water for 30 minutes.
  • Don't overcook the crabmeat. It will become tough and rubbery if you cook it for too long.
  • Season the crabmeat scramble to taste. You can use salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, or any other seasonings you like.
  • Serve the crabmeat scramble immediately. It's best when it's hot and fresh.

Conclusion:

A crabmeat scramble is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. It's easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. With a few simple ingredients, you can create a satisfying and flavorful meal that the whole family will love. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give crabmeat scramble a try!
