Time 15m

Yield 4-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 lb tilapia fillets or 1 lb white fish fillet
1 lb imitation crabmeat
1 bunch green onion
salt and pepper
lots Old Bay Seasoning
3 tablespoons Dijon mustard
4 tablespoons mayonnaise
3 eggs
1 (5 ounce) bag pork rinds (we use spicy bbq)

Steps:

  • Microwave or bake the fish until it flakes and flake up the imitation crab.
  • Vhop up the green onions and add to mix with the eggs, mustard, mayo, Old Bay along with salt and pepper (you want this kind of moist to hold the breading).
  • Crush the pork rinds fine, (we like our chopper for this) with some more Old Bay if you'd like.
  • Heat your oil on the stove to about 350°.
  • Make small patties and dip them in your dry mix (if you would like larger patties, I suggest you bake these).
  • Then place them in the hot oil, just enough to cover up the patty half way.
  • Brown each side, splash with lemon and serve.

Categories     Crab

Time 25m

Yield 20 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 lb blue crabmeat
1 tablespoon small diced red bell pepper
1 tablespoon small diced green bell pepper
1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh parsley leaves
1 tablespoon heavy mayonnaise
2 eggs
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 1/2 teaspoons maryland-style crab boil seasoning (recommended ( Old Bay)
2 tablespoons canola oil
1/4 cup heavy mayonnaise
1/4 cup Dijon mustard
1/4 teaspoon fresh lemon juice

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, mix all ingredients, except oil and Mustard Sauce until blended. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. With a tablespoon, carefully spoon poker-chip size mini-cakes into the pan. (The batter will be very loose since there are no bread crumbs, but once the egg in the mix starts to cook they will hold together fine.) Cook on 1 side until firm, about 2 minutes, and then flip and cook for about 1 more minute. Cook in batches as necessary. Serve hot with mustard sauce.
  • Mix all ingredients together in a small bowl. Refrigerate until ready to serve.

Tips:

  • Choose the freshest crab meat possible. Fresh crab meat will have a sweet, briny flavor and a firm texture. Avoid crab meat that is brown or has a slimy texture.
  • Use a variety of crab meat. You can use all one type of crab meat, or a combination of different types, such as blue crab, dungeness crab, or snow crab.
  • Don't overmix the crab cakes. Overmixing will make the crab cakes tough. Gently mix the ingredients together until they are just combined.
  • Form the crab cakes into patties. Use a 1/4-cup measuring cup to scoop the crab cake mixture. Then, use your hands to form the mixture into patties that are about 1-inch thick.
  • Cook the crab cakes over medium heat. Cooking the crab cakes over medium heat will help them to cook evenly without burning.
  • Serve the crab cakes immediately. Crab cakes are best served hot out of the pan. You can garnish them with lemon wedges, tartar sauce, or your favorite dipping sauce.

Conclusion:

Crab cakes are a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed as an appetizer, main course, or snack. They are easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. Whether you like them traditional or with a twist, crab cakes are sure to please everyone at your table.
