These crab cakes were a bit too greasy for my liking. I think I'll try baking them next time instead of frying them.

I had trouble finding crab meat, so I used imitation crab. The crab cakes still turned out well, but I think they would have been better with real crab.

These crab cakes were a bit bland for my taste. I think I'll add some Old Bay seasoning next time.
