Crab Cake Ingredients

Method

Crab Cake Directions

1

Prepare the Crab Mixture

In a mixing bowl, combine the fresh crab meat, breadcrumbs, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, egg, chopped green onions, Old Bay seasoning, salt, and black pepper. Mix gently to combine, being careful not to break up the crab too much.

2

Form the Crab Cakes

Shape the mixture into small patties, about 2 inches in diameter. Place them on a tray lined with parchment paper.

3

Chill the Crab Cakes

Cover the tray with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to help the cakes hold their shape.

4

Cook the Crab Cakes

Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the crab cakes in batches, cooking until golden brown on both sides, about 4-5 minutes per side.

5

Serve

Serve the crab cakes hot with tartar sauce on the side.
