MomMom's Crab Cakes
Makes 8 Crab Cakes
Ingredients
- 1 pound lumb crab meat
- 2 eggs, beaten
- 2 Tbsp minced onion
- 1 Tbsp minced green pepper
- 1 Tbsp dijon mustard
- 1/4 tsp Worcestershire sauce
- 15 saltine crackers, finely crushed into 1/2 cup crumbs
- 3 Tbsp mayonnaise
- salt and pepper to taste
- 3 Tbsp butter
Instructions
- In a large bowl, combine eggs, onion, pepper, mustard, Worcestershire sauce, cracker crumbs, mayo and salt and pepper.
- Gently fold in crab meat until it is all incorporated. Try not to break up the pieces of crab too much.
- Form mixture into 8 equal size cakes. At this point I like to refrigerate them for an hour or so, but it's not necessary.
- Melt butter in skillet and cook crab cakes over medium-low heat until golden and heated through. Serve with your favorite sauce.
