Ingredients:

  • 1/4 cup minced celery
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 tbsp dry mustard
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • generous pinch of cayenne pepper
  • 2 3/4 cups (about) fresh breadcrumbs made from crustless french bread
  • 2 tbsp (1/4 stick) butter
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • lemon wedges

Directions:

  1. Mix first 7 ingredients in medium bowl. Mix in crab. Mix in enough breadcrumbs (about 2 cups) to form mixture that barely holds together. Spread remaining breadcrumbs on baking sheet.
  2. Shape crab mixture into eight 3/4-inch-thick patties. Coat crab cakes with remaining breadcrumbs, pressing to adhere. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate at least 1 hour. (Can be prepared 4 hours ahead; keep refrigerated.)
  3. Melt 1 tablespoon butter with 1 tablespoon oil in large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add 4 crab cakes; reduce heat to medium and cook until brown, about 4 minutes per side. Wipe skillet clean. Repeat with remaining butter, oil and crab cakes. Transfer crab cakes to plates. Serve crab cakes immediately with lemon wedges.
