Steps:
- Heat oven to 400. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or spray with non-stick cooking spray.
- Mix together the 4 ingredients for the Wasabi Mayonnaise and set aside.
- Combine crabmeat and breadcrumbs in a medium bowl.
- In a small bowl, whisk egg, chives, 2 tbsp mayonnaise, mustard, Old Bay seasoning, and lemon zest until blended; add to crab mixture and stir.
- Scoop mounds of crab mixture (about 1 1/2 tbsp) into small round cakes, about 1 1/2 inches wide.
- Heat oil in large skillet over medium heat. Cook cakes 1 minute per side, or until lightly browned (working in batches).
- Transfer cakes to a paper towel to blot up excess oil, then transfer to prepared baking sheet. Bake at 400 for 10 minutes, or until golden brown.
- Top each crab cake with a small dollop of Wasabi Mayonnaise.
Tips:
- Choose fresh, high-quality crab meat. Fresh crab meat will have a sweet, delicate flavor. Avoid crab meat that is frozen or has been sitting in the refrigerator for a long time, as it will be less flavorful and may have a fishy taste.
- Use a light touch when mixing the crab cakes. Over-mixing the crab cakes will make them tough. Gently fold the ingredients together until they are just combined.
- Don't overcook the crab cakes. Crab cakes should be cooked until they are golden brown and just cooked through. Overcooking will make them dry and tough.
- Serve the crab cakes with a dipping sauce. A dipping sauce will help to enhance the flavor of the crab cakes. Some popular dipping sauces include tartar sauce, cocktail sauce, and avocado-wasabi mayonnaise.
Conclusion:
Crab cakes are a delicious and versatile dish that can be served as an appetizer, main course, or snack. They are easy to make and can be customized to your liking. With a little creativity, you can create your crab cake that is sure to impress your family and friends. So next time you're looking for a seafood dish to try, give crab cakes a try!
