Ingredients:

Serving

1/2 cup low-calorie mayonnaise
1 1/2 tsp ground black pepper
1/4 tsp crushed red pepper flakes
1/4 tsp old bay seasoning
1 1/2 tsp dijon mustard
1 1/2 tsp lemon juice
4 egg yolks
1 1/2 tbsp worcestershire sauce
2 cups fresh breadcrumbs (i crumble up two slices of day old bread)
1/3 cup chopped fresh parsley
1 1/2 lbs fresh lump crabmeat (frozen crabmeat works just as well, but needs to be thawed first)
1 tbsp olive oil
1 bottle tartar sauce
1 tsp fresh lemon juice
1/2 tsp old bay seasoning

Directions:

In a mixing bowl, combine the first 10 ingredient by hand or with a large spoon.
Pick through the crabmeat for bits of shell or cartilage, trying not to break up the crab lumps.
Fold the crabmeat gently into the mixture.
For 8 to 10 crab cakes of roughly equal size (~3inch round), working as quickly as possible to maintain a cold temperature as much as possible.
Makes roughly 24 bite sized cakes.
Lightly oil a frying pan and cook cakes over medium heat until golden brown on both sides, about 3 minutes per side.
For a healthier cooking method, place the crab cakes on a baking sheet and cook under the broiler until the tops are a golden brown.
Flip the crabcakes once so that both sides get cooked.
For the Dipping Sauce combine the tartar sauce, lemon and Old Bay seasoning in a small bowl.
