Once again not mine but it sure sounds good :-) Ingredients:
2 lbs. jumbo lump crabmeat |
2 cups bread crumbs, about 6 slices white bread, no crust |
1/2 cup mayonnaise |
2 tbs. lemon juice |
2 eggs |
1 jalapeno pepper, seeds removed, finely chopped |
2 scallions, finely chopped |
2 tbs. fresh parsley, chopped |
1 garlic clove, minced |
dash of salt |
dash of pepper |
1 cup flour |
6 tbs. vegetable oil |
2 lemons cut into wedges |
Directions:
1. Flake the jumbo lump crabmeat into a bowl and add bread crumbs, mayonnaise, lemon juice, eggs, jalapeno, scallions, parsley, garlic, salt and pepper. Mix well.
2. Spread flour on a board. Flour your hands and form crab cakes about 3 inches round and about 3/4 thick. Add a little flour to the mixture so it isn’t so sticky.
3. Heat oil in a large frying pan on medium heat.
4. When the oil is hot, cook a few crab cakes at a time, about 2-3.
5. After they start to brown at the edges, turn the cakes over with a wide spatula. Fry each side for about 3 minutes.
6. Drain on paper towels and serve with lemon wedges
