-
Step 1Mix egg, mayo, onions, seasoning and hot sauce in small bowl until mayo is completely incorporated; set aside.

Using a 1/3 cup measure, scoop up a portion, forming the mixture into a very compact cake. Repeat to make 8 cakes. Lightly dust with flour. (Can be covered with plastic and refrigerated up to 8-hours.)
