Fancy Lump Crab Cakes With Roumalade Sauce Recipes

THE ULTIMATE CRAB CAKES WITH REMOULADE

Steps:

• Put potatoes in a large pot and cover with cold water. Add salt and bring to the boil, uncovered. Simmer for about 20 minutes until there is no resistance when a fork is inserted.
• Drain the potatoes and make sure they are dry. Mash them in a large bowl until all there are no lumps.
• While the potatoes are cooking, heat the milk, garlic, thyme, bay leaves, peppercorns and 1 tablespoon of butter in a large saucepan over a medium heat. Do not let it boil. Using a sieve, strain the milk and herbs into the potatoes and mix thoroughly. Add the chopped chives and season with salt and pepper.
• Check crabmeat for pieces of shell. Cover with cling-film and leave in the refrigerator until ready to use. Remove and fold carefully into the potatoes. Using your hands shape the mixture into medium sized patties, taking care to flatten out the centers and smooth out the top.
• Roll them in bread crumbs and shake off excess.
• Coat a large non-stick skillet with a 1/4-inch of oil and heat over a medium heat until it begins to smoke slightly. Pan-fry the crab cakes until brown, about 5 minutes on each side, turning carefully with a spatula. Remove from pan and serve on a large flat dish with Remoulade.
• Garnish with slices of lemon and serve with a green salad.
• Mix all the ingredients together in a bowl. Refrigerate for 30 minutes before serving.
• Yield: 6 servings

CRAB CAKES WITH REMOULADE SAUCE

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.

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 AND 5-INGREDIENT REMOULADE

Add the crabmeat and panko and mix gently but thoroughly to combine. Form 8 crab cakes by pressing them into shape with a 1/3-cup measure. Place on a buttered baking sheet.
• Place an oven rack 8 inches from the broiler element. Heat the broiler to a high setting. Brush the tops of the crab cakes with the melted butter. Broil until golden on top and heated through, 4 to 5 minutes. Serve immediately with the lemon wedges and Remoulade.
• Add the mayonnaise, capers, garlic salt, pepper and lemon juice to a bowl and whisk.

FANCY LUMP CRAB CAKES WITH ROUMALADE SAUCE

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.
