Process

  • Combine all ingredients except bread crumbs and oil.

  • Form the crab mixture into round patties, approximately one half inch thick and two and a half inches in diameter.
  • Coat the outside of each crab cake lightly with remaining bread crumbs and pan-fry on each side until golden brown.
