Time 50m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 19

1/4 cup mayonnaise
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1/2 teaspoon seafood seasoning, such as Old Bay
2 scallions, finely chopped
1 large egg
1/2 lemon, finely zested
Kosher salt
4 slices white sandwich bread, crusts removed, cut or torn into small pieces
1 pound jumbo lump crab meat, picked through for shells
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 tablespoon chopped fresh cilantro
1/4 teaspoon sugar
1/2 English cucumber, cut into 1/4-inch dice
1/2 lemon, juiced
1/2 large mango, peeled and cut into 1/4-inch dice
1/4 jalapeno, preferably red, seeded and minced
Kosher salt
1/4 cup mayonnaise
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard

Steps:

  • For the crab cakes: Whisk together the mayonnaise, Worcestershire, seafood seasoning, scallions, egg, lemon zest and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a large bowl. Add the bread and toss to coat.
  • Add the crab and combine the mixture well with your hands. Form 18 small crab cakes, about 2 inches wide and 1/2-inch thick, making sure to pack the cakes tightly with your hands.
  • Heat the butter in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat until the foam subsides. Working in batches, add the crab cakes and cook, turning once, until golden brown on both sides and heated through, about 3 minutes per side.
  • For the mango salsa: Combine the cilantro, sugar, cucumber, lemon juice, mango and jalapeno in a medium bowl and season with salt.
  • For the creamy Dijon: Combine the mayonnaise and Dijon in a small bowl and mix well.
  • Serve the hot crab cakes topped with a dollop of the creamy Dijon and a little of the salsa.

  • Don't overmix your batter: Overmixing can result in tough, dense cakes. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Use ripe mangoes: Ripe mangoes will provide the best flavor and sweetness to your cakes. Look for mangoes that are slightly soft to the touch and have a sweet aroma.
  • Don't overcrowd your cake pan: Make sure to leave enough space between the cakes in the pan so that they can rise properly.
  • Bake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean: This is the best way to ensure that your cakes are fully cooked.
  • Let your cakes cool completely before frosting: This will help the frosting to set properly and prevent it from melting.

Conclusion:

Mini mango cakes are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that are perfect for any occasion. With their moist, fluffy texture and sweet mango flavor, these cakes are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them.
