Chef Levi’s Jumbo Lump Crab Cakes Recipe
There are countless recipes for crab cakes. This is a departure from the Tavern On The Green recipe featured in our review of Miller’s Select crab meat, which used only mayonnaise as a binder plus scallions and Old Bay seasoning, coating the crab cake in breadcrumbs before frying. Here, the seasonings are spicier, include Worcestershire sauce, cayenne and mustard, plus parsley and red pepper. The breadcrumbs are mixed in instead of used as a coating. See which you prefer.
Ingredients
- 2 cans Miller’s Select Jumbo Lump Crab Meat
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise
- 1-1/2 teaspoons yellow mustard
- 1/2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tablespoon liquid egg substitute
- ¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper
- 2 teaspoons parsley, minced
- ¼ cup red bell pepper, diced small
- ¼ cup breadcrumbs
- Clarified butter and lemon juice (as
needed)
Preparation
- Mix mayonnaise, mustard, Worcestershire sauce, egg, cayenne, parsley and red pepper thoroughly.
- Gently fold in crabmeat and breadcrumbs to keep crab as large as possible. Form into 4-inch-thick patties.
- Add clarified butter to heated sauté pan to cover ¼-inch thick.
- Cook crab cakes, turning only once when first side is nicely browned.
- Remove from pan and squeeze desired amount of lemon juice onto each crab cake.
