Crab cakes are an easy, summer meal that are festive and special. This recipe is adapted from Shirley Phillips’ Crab Cake Recipe on the package of Phillips Crab. I used Shar Table Crackers to make bread crumbs. Kids are much more likely to try these if you call them “Crabby Patties” and tell them it is like a fish stick.
1 lb. Phillips Crab Meat
1 egg
2 tsp Worcestire Sauce
1/4 tsp dry mustard
2 Tablespoons mayonnaise
1 teaspoon lemon juice
1 Tablespoon olive oil
1 tsp chopped parsley
1/4 tsp onion or garlic salt
1/2 cup bread crumbs (Shar Table Crackers ground up in mini cuisinart until fine crumbs)
Combine all ingredients except crab meat. Gently fold in crab meat. Shape into ten 3 inch crab cakes. Pan fry until golden brown in olive oil. Serves 5 people.
