CRAB CAKES WITH GRAINY MUSTARD AND SCALLION SAUCES



Crab Cakes with Grainy Mustard and Scallion Sauces image

Because they are made with egg yolks instead of breadcrumbs and are baked rather than fried, these cakes have an especially distinct crab taste. Chef Edward Brown, of Sea Grill in New York City, enhances that flavor wonderfully by serving the cakes alongside two spicy sauces.

BAKED MACKEREL



Baked Mackerel image

Mackerel is one of the easiest fish for us to catch here in Maine so I am always on the lookout for a new recipe. This is one I want to try soon. The recipe calls for 2 2-lb mackerel, but we usually catch smaller ones. I think just adjusting the baking time would allow for me to use smaller fish.

Yield Serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 garlic cloves, peeled
2 tsp paprika
1 tsp sea salt, plus more to taste
Olive oil
8 mackerel fillets, skin on
1 pound new potatoes
2-3 scallions, trimmed and thinly sliced
For the vinaigrette
Pinch of saffron
1 Tbsp white wine vinegar
1 tsp Dijon mustard
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat the oven to 400°F.
  • 2. Put the garlic and paprika into a mortar, add the salt, and pound to a smooth paste. Add a few drops of olive oil, then rub the flesh side of the mackerel fillets with the paste and set aside.
  • 3. Make the vinaigrette. Put all the ingredients into a small bowl and whisk together with a fork. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • 4. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and brush lightly with olive oil. Lay the mackerel fillets skin side up on the paper and season the skin with sea salt. Roast for 8-10 minutes until the skin is crisp and the fish is cooked through. Remove from the oven and leave to rest.
  • 5. Meanwhile, boil the potatoes in a large pan of salted water for about 15 minutes until tender, then drain. Return to the pan with 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Crush lightly with the back of a fork, then add the scallions and stir to combine. Season with salt, then add a couple of tablespoons of the vinaigrette.
  • 6. Serve the crushed potatoes topped with the mackerel and a drizzle of the remaining vinaigrette.

Tips:

  • Choose the freshest mackerel possible. Look for fish that has bright, clear eyes, red gills, and a firm body.
  • Use good quality mustard. A grainy mustard will add a nice texture to the sauce.
  • Don't overcook the mackerel. It should be cooked until it is just opaque in the center.
  • Serve the mackerel immediately with your favorite sides. Roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or rice are all great options.

Conclusion:
