- 3.Spread a thin layer of plain bread crumbs on your work surface.
- 4.Form crab mixture into equal balls, approximately two inches in diameter. Place on crumbs.
- 5.Gently flatten the ball of crab mixture and round the edges. Form cakes about one-half inch thick and three inches round. Refrigerate.
- 6.In a sauté pan, melt 2 tablespoons of oil until hot. Gently slide in crab cakes 2 at a time.

- Chef's Tip:.
- While you may be tempted to increase the amount of bread crumbs used, you'll receive the best sauté results with the thin layer as described above.
