How To Make mini crab cakes with sirracha remoulade

  • Step 1
    If using cooked crab, remove the meat from the shells and chop roughly. If using fresh, add to a pot of boiling water and cook until claws are bright pink and meat is cooked through. Then remove the meat from the shells and chop roughly. Set aside.
  • Step 2
    Add all the remaining crab cake ingredients except the sesame seeds to a bowl and mix thoroughly to combine.
  • Step 3
    Add the crab meat to the bowl and fold gently to combine, being careful not to break up the crab too much.
  • Step 4
    Form the crab mixture into patties about the size of a golf ball. Then flatten a bit with your finger tips.
  • Step 5
    Roll the crab cakes in the sesame seeds and set aside.
  • Step 6
    Place the oil in a saucepan and bring to 375 degrees.
  • Step 7
    Working in batches of 6-8, deep fry the crab cakes until golden. (about 2-3 minutes). Season with salt to taste immediately after removing from the oil.
  • Step 8
    Mix the remoulade ingredients together in a bowl, then place a small dollop on top of each crab cake.
