Steps:
- Pulse the bread in a food processor to make coarse breadcrumbs; transfer to a large bowl. Add the crab, mayonnaise, green onions, lemon zest, Worcestershire, seafood seasoning, hot sauce, 1/4 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Mix gently to combine. Add the egg and mix gently but thoroughly.
- For the mixture into eight 3-inch-wide crab cakes. Refrigerate for about 30 minutes to set slightly.
- Melt 3 tablespoons of the butter in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Cook the crab cakes, in batches if necessary, turning once, until golden brown on both sides and heated through, about 4 minutes per side. Transfer to a large plate and cover loosely with foil.
- Melt the remaining 2 tablespoons butter in a large pot over medium heat. Add the garlic and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Add the spinach, in batches if necessary, and cook, tossing, until just wilted. Season with salt and pepper.
- Divide the spinach among four plates and top with the crab cakes. Serve with Cocktail Remoulade and lemon wedges.
- Mix together the mayonnaise, ketchup, horseradish, parsley, mustard, vinegar, capers, green onion and some salt and pepper in a bowl. Cover and refrigerate at least 1 hour. The remoulade keeps, refrigerated, for up to 3 days.
CRAB CAKES WITH REMOULADE SAUCE
The best crab cakes are freshly made and cooked in your skillet just until crunchy on the outside. The remoulade sauce is inspired by New Orleans cooking, and you can adjust the spice levels with more or less horseradish and Louisiana-style hot sauce. Crisp French fries make a great side, but you can go lighter with marinated green bean salad.

Steps:

- To make crab cakes, combine mayonnaise, egg, red onion and parsley in a large bowl, stirring well with a fork.

Steps:
- Heat the olive oil in a medium skillet over medium heat. Saute the onions until translucent and tender, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the seafood seasoning and garlic and saute 1 minute longer. Let cool completely.
- In a large bowl, combine the crab meat, mayonnaise, parsley, mustard, salt, pepper, bread, egg, lemon zest and sauteed onions. Scoop the crab mixture using a 1/3-cup measure and form cakes (they may be slightly loose; see Cook's Note). Transfer to a baking sheet and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
- In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon olive oil over medium-high heat. Cook the crab cakes in batches, adding more oil if needed, until golden brown, about 3 minutes per side. Serve atop salad greens with a drizzle of Remoulade Sauce.
- Whisk together the mayonnaise, ketchup, capers, relish, mustard and lemon juice in a medium bowl until well combined. Season with salt and pepper.
FANCY LUMP CRAB CAKES WITH ROUMALADE SAUCE
After many attempts to find a good, reasonably priced crab cake here in West Central Fl right on the Gulf Coast I decided to try my hand at making one. Here was what I came up with on my first attempt. And also even with the high priced restaurant versions I've never had a roumalade sauce I cared for. Try not to use crab meat in a can. Usually the seafood department at the local grocery store will have crab meat in a plastic container that is fresher without the metallic taste

Steps:
- In medium sized bowl added your drained and rinsed fancy lump crab meat, finely minced celery, finely minced sweet onion, Paul Prudhomme Seafood Magic seasoning, ground dry mustard, parsley flakes and bread crumbs and loosely mix then sit off to the side.
- In another medium sized bowl start adding your wet ingredients -- mayonnaise, lightly beaten eggs, lemon juice and Worcestershire sauce and whisk together until there are no lumps. Then pour over crab mixture and mix well. Then sit off to the side while you make the Roumalade sauce.
- To make the Roumalade sauce add all the ingredients until a bowl and mix well. Then sit off to the side while you form and cook your patties. You want the sauce to be room temp and not be cold. It won't hurt it to sit out for such a short period.
- Add the 4 tablespoon canola oil (although extra virgin olive oil will work great -- I just had run out) Heat on medium high heat until it gets hot. While you are waiting for the oil to heat start making your patties. Just eyeball about 1/2 a cup of the crab mixture and form into a ball. Flatten the ball into about a 1/2 inch thick patty making sure all the edges are packed tight so you don't lose any parts. Add to the oil and cook on between medium and medium high heat for 10 minutes. Carefully turn over and cook on medium heat for an additional 10 minutes.
- If you know how to drizzle then drizzle the Roumalade sauce over and around the patty and your plate will look really nice and fancy. But if you're like me just place a dollop of the Roumalade sauce on the patty and place a little dollop on the side.

Steps:
- Mix wet ingredients together and add breadcrumbs.
- Fold in crabmeat, being careful not to break up the larger pieces of crab.
- Form into 2-ounce rounds.
- Coat the outside of cakes with panko breadcrumbs.
- Heat skillet and add olive oil to coat bottom of pan.
- Add crab cakes and cook for 1 to 2 minutes, or until golden brown on bottom. Turn over and cook the other side.
- Rosemary Mayonnaise: Combine all ingredients; set aside. Serve with crab cakes.
Tips:
- Choose the freshest crab meat possible. Fresh crab meat will have a sweet, delicate flavor and will be free of any off-putting odors.
- Use a variety of crab meat. Lump crab meat is the most popular type of crab meat for crab cakes, but you can also use backfin crab meat or claw crab meat. Using a variety of crab meat will give your crab cakes a more complex flavor and texture.
- Use a light touch when mixing the crab cakes. Overmixing the crab cakes will make them tough. Gently fold the ingredients together until they are just combined.
- Form the crab cakes into patties that are about 2 inches in diameter and 1/2 inch thick. This will help them cook evenly.
- Pan-fry the crab cakes over medium heat until they are golden brown on both sides. This will take about 3-4 minutes per side.
- Serve the crab cakes with your favorite dipping sauce. Remoulade sauce is a classic choice, but you can also use tartar sauce, cocktail sauce, or even a simple lemon butter sauce.
Conclusion:
Crab cakes are a delicious and versatile dish that can be served as an appetizer, main course, or even a snack. You can make these tasty morsels ahead of time to save time on busy weeknights! With a little planning and effort, you can easily make delicious crab cakes at home that will impress your family and friends.
