Categories     Food & Cooking     Appetizers

Number Of Ingredients 10

5 saltine crackers, crushed to fine crumbs
1 pound lump crabmeat, picked over for cartilage
1 large egg
2 1/2 tablespoons Homemade Mayonnaise, or prepared
2 teaspoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
1 1/2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
Dash hot sauce, such as Tabasco
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
3 tablespoons peanut oil
Horseradish Tartar Sauce

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, gently mix together cracker crumbs, crabmeat, egg, mayonnaise, lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce, hot sauce, salt, and pepper. The mixture will be wet. Form about 1/4 of the crab mixture for each cake.
  • Heat peanut oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Gently slide the cakes off a spatula into the oil. Saute until the crab cakes are golden brown and cooked through, about 5 minutes on each side. Remove from skillet, and drain on paper towels. Serve hot with tartar sauce.

Overall, I thought these crab cakes were pretty good. They were easy to make and tasted pretty good. I would definitely make them again.

These crab cakes were a bit too spicy for my taste. I think I'll use less Old Bay seasoning next time.

I thought these crab cakes were just okay. The crab meat was a bit bland and the bread crumbs were a bit too dry.

I've never had crab cakes before, but these were delicious! The crab meat was tender and flavorful, and the bread crumbs gave them a nice crispy texture.

The crab cakes were good, but I found the recipe to be a bit too complicated. I think I'll try a simpler recipe next time.

These crab cakes were a bit too dry for my taste. I think I'll add more mayonnaise next time.

I was a bit skeptical about making crab cakes at home, but this recipe made it so easy. The crab cakes were crispy on the outside and tender on the inside.

I've made crab cakes before, but this recipe is by far the best. The crab cakes were moist and flavorful, and the Old Bay seasoning gave them a nice kick.
