Time 1h30m

Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 egg
1 tablespoon butter
1 small onion, minced
1 strip celery, minced
1 pound fresh crabmeat
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1 ½ cups milk
5 slices day-old bread
3 eggs, beaten
3 cups dry bread crumbs
oil for frying

Steps:

  • Place one egg in a saucepan and cover with cold water. Bring water to a boil and immediately remove from heat. Cover and let eggs stand in hot water for 10 to 12 minutes. Remove from hot water, cool, peel and chop.
  • Melt the butter in a skillet over medium heat. Cook and stir the onion and celery until the onions are translucent; remove and let cool. In a mixing bowl combine the cooled onion mixture with crabmeat. Mix thoroughly. Refrigerate for 15 minutes.
  • Remove crab mixture from refrigerator and add hard cooked egg and Worcestershire sauce.
  • Pour milk into a separate bowl. Dip the bread slices, one at a time, quickly into the milk and squeeze most of it out. Add soaked bread to the crab mixture. Refrigerate for 30 minutes or until firm.
  • In a wide shallow bowl, beat the 3 eggs. Place bread crumbs in a separate bowl. Remove crab mixture from refrigerator, shape into hamburger shaped patties. Dip each one into the beaten egg and then into the bread crumbs, coating well.
  • In a medium skillet, heat canola oil over medium heat and fry crab cakes until they are a nice golden brown.
