Crab Cake Ingredients
Method
Crab Cake Directions
Prepare the Crab Mixture
In a large mixing bowl, combine the crab meat, bread crumbs, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, chopped green onions, egg, Old Bay seasoning, salt, and black pepper.
Mix Thoroughly
Using your hands or a spatula, gently mix all the ingredients together until evenly combined. Be careful not to break up the crab meat too much.
Form the Crab Cakes
Shape the mixture into patties about 2-3 inches in diameter and 1 inch thick. You should be able to make about 8 crab cakes.
Chill the Crab Cakes
Place the formed crab cakes on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes. This helps them hold their shape during cooking.
Cook the Crab Cakes
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Once hot, carefully add the crab cakes to the skillet, cooking in batches if necessary to avoid overcrowding.
Fry Until Golden Brown
Cook the crab cakes for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and crispy. Make sure they are cooked through.
Serve
Transfer the cooked crab cakes to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil. Serve hot with your choice of dipping sauce.
