Crab And Breadfruit Cakes Recipes

CRAB CAKES

Steps:

• Make chipotle mayo crab cakes sauce by combining the ingredients until smooth. Refrigerate, covered, until ready to serve. (This can be made several days in advance).
• In a mixing bowl add the crab meat, bell peppers, one beaten egg, Old Bay seasoning, mayo, garlic, cilantro and salt and pepper. Gently stir just until blended.
• Refrigerate for at least one hour, or up to 5 hours.
• Beat the remaining egg and add to a shallow dish. Add the panko bread crumbs to another dish.
• Spoon about 1/3 cup of the mixture into your palm and flatten into a small disc, about 3 inches in diameter.
• Sprinkle the outsides of the crab cake patties with a tiny bit of cornstarch.
• Dip each patty lightly in the beaten egg, and then coat them lightly with panko bread crumbs. I try to avoid doing a thick coating of crumbs because I like the crab flavor to shine through as much as possible.
• Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add the crab cakes and cook for about 3-4 minutes on one side, until golden brown on bottom.
• Gently flip to the other side and cook for another 3 minutes, or until golden. Remove to a plate. Serve warm with chipotle mayo sauce for dipping.
