CRAB CAKES WITH BACON
Steps:
- Check through crabmeat, removing any bits of shell (and any extra moisture, while being careful not to break it up too much). Fry bacon in a frying pan until lightly browned. Add shallots, celery and garlic and cook until soft but not brown, about 2 minutes more. Transfer to a mixing bowl and let cool. Stir in crab, herbs, cracker crumbs, Old Bay, salt, pepper and cayenne. Fold in the egg and enough cream to obtain a moist but firm consistency. If it is too wet, add a few more crumbs. Wet your hands with water and form the crab mixture into 4 large or 8 small cakes, and place on a plate. Wrap the plate wax paper and refrigerate for 30+ minutes. Just before serving, heat the butter and oil in a nonstick pan. Pan-fry the cakes until crusty and golden, about 3 minutes per side (longer for larger cakes). OR, cook under the broiler for 3 minutes per side. Drain on paper towels and serve
Tips:
- Selecting the right crab meat is key. Look for fresh or frozen lump crab meat, as it has a better texture and flavor compared to flaked crab meat.
- Ensure the crab cakes are well-chilled before cooking as this helps bind the ingredients together and prevents them from falling apart.
- Use a light touch when mixing the crab cake ingredients to avoid overworking the mixture, which can result in tough crab cakes.
- Pan-frying the crab cakes over medium heat allows for even cooking and a crispy exterior without overcooking the center.
- Serve the crab cakes immediately with your desired accompaniments, such as tartar sauce, lemon wedges, or a side salad, to enjoy their freshness and flavor.
