CRAB CAKES WITH THAI SWEET CHILI SAUCE & MARINATED CUCUMBER
This is the recipe I made while on our Holland America Panama Canal cruise. There was a Culinary Arts Class, In groups we made a full meal, my group made these delicious crab cakes and sauce and marinated cucumbers. It was sooo fun and our efforts were served to us in the Pinnacle Restaurant on board the Statendam cruise ship. The menu was: Starter - Dungeness crab cakes with Thai sweet chili sauce and marinated cucumbers. Main course - Chicken with fresh apricots, ginger and cracked almonds - served with a custard sauce. (Vegetables on the side) Two Desserts - Grand Marnier Chocolate volcano cake or Vanilla souffle Several choices of white and red wines. It was a wonderful experience, the instructor was the Executive Chef of the Pinnacle
