| RECIPE OF THE WEEK |
| CRAB CAKES |
| Ingredients: 9 saltene crackers, crushed 1/4 cup chopped onions or 1 tbsp dehydrated onion 1 tsp oil if using fresh onion 1 lb crab meat, cooked....you can use the fake stuff or canned but I recommend splurging for the real stuff - it makes quite the difference 2 eggs, room temperature 3 tablespoons mayonnaise (I use Helman's) 1/4 tsp worchestershire sauce 1/2 tsp salt 1 tbsp oil (no this is not a duplication) Method: If using fresh onions (which I recommend), saute in 1 tsp oil and set aside. In a large bowl, mix in all the ingredients EXCEPT the 1 tbsp oil. The mixture will be wet. Pat and flatten crab mixture into patties, allowing 1/3 cup for each patty, place them on a platter. Heat the 1 tbsp oil in a skillet using medium heat. Very gently slide each cake off the platter and into the hot oil....DO ONLY 4 AT A TIME. Saute each side for 5 minutes so egg is cooked and cakes are lightly brown. Servings differ depending on the size of each patty. |

| MMMMMMMMM I first tried crab cakes when my husband took me to San Fran. We were there with another couple Danielle and Doug. Danielle said I just had to try them so we got some off the pier. I could not believe how good they were. So when I got back home, I attempted to find a recipe that resembled the ones I had eaten in San Fran. These are so very yummy. Give em a try!!!!!!! |
