Crabcakes

This recipe makes about 25 crabcakes.

Ingredients:

  • 12 cup mayonnaise (I made the mayonnaise myself, see Sauces)
  • 1 large egg, beaten
  • 1 tbsp Dijon mustard
  • 1 tbsp Worchestershire sauce
  • 12 teaspoon hot sauce
  • 1 pound crab meat
  • 20 saltine crackers, crushed
  • 14 cup canola oil
  • lemon wedges, for serving

In a small bowl, whisk the mayonnaise with the egg, mustard, Worcestershire sauce and hot sauce until smooth.

In a medium bowl, lightly toss the crabmeat with the cracker crumbs. Gently fold in the mayonnaise mixture. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.

Lightly pack into 25 small patties, about 1 12 inches thick. In a large skillet, heat the oil until shimmering. Add the crab cakes and cook over moderately high heat until deeply golden and heated through, about 3 minutes per side. Transfer the crab cakes to plates and serve with lemon wedges.

My test: They were a success, nothing more to say about this recipe.
