CRAB CAKES WITH GREEN ONIONS image

Categories     Shellfish     Sauté

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 egg, beaten
2 T. mayonnaise
2 T. minced green onion tops
1/4 t. Chesapeake seasoning, such as Old Bay
1/4 t. hot red pepper sauce
1 pound lump or backfin crabmeat, drained and picked over for shells
4 t. milk
10 salting crackers finely crushed
6 T. olive oil, for frying

Steps:

  • Mix egg, mayonnaise, green onions, Old Bay and hot sauce in a small bowl until mayo is completely incorporated, then set aside. Lightly break up crabmeat in a medium bowl. Add milk; toss gently to coat. Add crushed saltines; toss gently to combine. Add egg mixture; gently toss, once again, to combine. Using a 1/3 cup measuring cup, scoop up a portion of crab, forming the mixture into a very compact cake. Repeat to make 8 cakes (can be covered with plastic wrap and refrigerated up to 8 hours ahead). About 10 minutes before serving, heat oil in a 12 inch skillet over medium to medium-high heat. Carefully add crab cakes; saute, turning once, until golden brown, about 3 minutes per side. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate. Serve immediately with lemon wedges.

These crab cakes were a bit too spicy for my taste, but they were still good.

I found the crab cakes to be a bit dry. I think I'll try adding some more mayonnaise next time.
