Yield 4-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 lb fresh-picked maine crabmeat (or any other fresh crabmeat)
3 cups unseasoned dry breadcrumbs
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
4 -5 dashes Tabasco sauce or 4 -5 dashes other hot pepper sauce
1 medium red bell pepper, finely minced
4 scallions, minced

1/4 cup additional breadcrumbs, for coating
oil (for frying)

Steps:

  • Combine crabmeat, breadcrumbs, mustard, hot sauce, bell pepper, scallions, celery and egg in a large bowl.
  • Add just enough mayonnaise to hold the ingredients together, being careful not to make it so moist that the mixture will fall apart.
  • Divide into 8 patties.
  • Coat with additional bread crumbs, then fry, four at a time, in hot oil until crispy and brown on all sides.
  • ***Patties can be made ahead of time and frozen- they freeze very well.

I would have liked more crab in the crab cakes.

I followed the recipe exactly and the crab cakes were still too dry.

The crab cakes were a little too salty for my taste, but otherwise they were good.

I'm not a huge fan of crab cakes, but these were really good. The Old Bay seasoning really gave them a nice flavor.

Great recipe! The crab cakes were crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. I served them with a lemon-butter sauce and they were perfect.
