Crab cakes are a traditional East Coast flavor; this recipe, however, gives them a Middle Eastern spin!!! They are moist and flavorful alone, but add the sauce, and WOW!

Not a fan of crab cakes, but these were pretty good. The curried yogurt sauce was a nice touch.

These crab cakes were amazing! The crab was cooked perfectly and the curried yogurt sauce was the perfect complement. I will definitely be making these again.

The crab cakes were a bit too dry for my taste, but the curried yogurt sauce was delicious. I think I'll try making the crab cakes again with a different recipe.

I've made these crab cakes several times now and they are always a crowd-pleaser. The combination of crab, spices, and herbs is perfect. The curried yogurt sauce is also delicious and adds a nice tang to the dish.

These crab cakes were a hit at my last dinner party. The curried yogurt sauce was the perfect complement to the crispy crab cakes. I will definitely be making these again.
