Sauce
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
2 shallots, chopped
2 garlic cloves, chopped
2 teaspoons chili garlic sauce
1/2 cup whipping cream

1/4 cup fresh lime juice

1 1/2 cups fresh white breadcrumbs
8 ounces fresh crabmeat, picked over
1/3 cup chopped green onions
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
1 large egg

Steps:

  • For Sauce:
  • Heat oil in heavy medium skillet over medium-low heat. Add shallots and garlic and sauté until tender, about 5 minutes. Add chili garlic sauce and stir 1 minute. Add cream, sake and lime juice. Simmer until sauce is slightly thickened, about 7 minutes.

I made a few substitutions to the recipe, but the crab cakes still turned out great. I used panko breadcrumbs instead of regular breadcrumbs, and I added a bit of Old Bay seasoning to the crab mixture.
