breeze inn crabcakes
Just finished reading a book called Savannah Breeze and a version of this recipe was included. I like the idea of baked rather than fried - every calorie counts! Crab cakes are popular in costal areas where crabs are prevalent!

How To Make breeze inn crabcakes
-
Step 1Saute veggies in butter or oil until no longer crisp - about 3 minutes. Add the seasoning, milk and mustard.
-
Step 2Mix together and add egg, parsley and bread or cracker crumbs. Gently fold in the crab or fish. (If using fish, make sure it is shredded or broken up to give it same consistency as the crab meat.)
-
Step 3Form into 8 patties, and pat gently so they're about 1/2 inch thick. (If these are to be appetizers, make the patties smaller)
-
Step 4Stir together the cheese and bread crumbs, then pat onto both sides of cakes. Chill in fridge until firm, about 2 hours.
-
Step 5Place chilled patties on cookie sheet, sprinkle with oil/butter mixture. Bake at 400ºC for 7-10 minutes.
-
Step 6Serve with a dollop of remoulade sauce or mango salsa.
