CRAB CAKES, BROILED OR PAN FRIED
I have been making this for a very long time and depending on my mood or the guests I've invited determined wether I added Old Bay seasoning. With or without the Old Bay, you will love these Crab Cakes.

Steps:
- 1. Prepare the crabmeat by gently separating it in a large bowl. Remove any shells that you come across.At this stage cover the crab and put it in the fridge to stay cool In a separate bowl combine all the other igredients. Fold the crabmeat into the breadcrumb mixture trying not to overwork the recipe.
- 2. At this point you can cover the mixture and put it in the fridge until you're ready to cook them or form them into cakes.
- 3. I have for years fried them in 4 to 5 tbls. salted butter, but recently I broiled them and they were fabulous. I also cut out 400-500 calories from the butter , not to mention the reduction in cholesteral. I also left out the Old Bay and found them to be very elegant fare with just the delicate crab flavor.
MRS. DUVALL'S PAN-FRIED CRAB CAKES
This recipe is the actor Robert Duvall's mother's recipe for crab cakes, and I think it is the best one there is. The crab cakes are small so they have the perfect ratio of crunchy exterior to creamy crab interior. Please use the best crabmeat you can find for best results. I use saltines for the soda crackers. This recipe was originally published in a 2003 issue of Food & Wine.

Steps:
- In a medium bowl, combine the mayonnaise, onion, eggs, Worcestershire sauce, dry mustard, salt and cayenne pepper. Fold in the crabmeat and 1/4 cup of the cracker crumbs. Shape the mixture into 16 cakes about 1 inch thick. Coat the crab cakes with the remaining cracker crumbs and transfer to a baking sheet lined with wax paper.
- In a large skillet, melt 1 tablespoon of the butter in 2 tablespoons of the oil. When the foam subsides, add half of the crab cakes and cook over moderate heat until golden and crisp, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Drain the crab cakes on paper towels and keep them warm in a low oven. Cook the remaining crab cakes in the remaining 1 tablespoon butter and 2 tablespoons oil. Serve with lemon wedges.

PAN-FRIED SPICY CRAB CAKES
Steps:
- Melt butter in a small saute pan over medium heat. Add onions, celery and bell peppers. Season with salt and cayenne. Cook, stirring, until the vegetables are soft and slightly golden, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook, stirring, for 2 minutes. Cool for 5 minutes. In a large mixing bowl, combine the crabmeat, green onions, Parmesan, parsley, mustard and lemon juice. Mix the mayonnaise, Worcestershire Sauce and hot pepper sauce together. Combine vegetable mixture with crab mixture. Fold in the mayonnaise mixture and 3/4 cup of the bread crumbs. Divide combined mixture into 10 equal portions and form into 1-inch thick round patties. In a shallow bowl, combine the flour and season with Essence. In another bowl, whisk the egg with the water. In a third bowl, combine the remaining 3/4 cup bread crumbs and season with Essence. Dredge the crab cakes first in seasoned flour, tapping off excess, then in egg wash, letting excess drip off. Lastly, dredge cakes into seasoned bread crumbs, coating cakes evenly. In a large saute pan, heat oil. Gently lay the cakes, 3 to 4 at a time, and pan fry until lightly golden, about 4 minutes on each side. Drain cakes on paper towels and season with Essence while still hot.
- To serve, place Creole Meuniere sauce in the center of each plate. Spoon the Roasted Vegetable Pecan Relish in the center of the sauce and lay a cake on top of the relish. Garnish with green onions and Essence.
- Combine all ingredients thoroughly and store in an airtight jar or container.
