Ingredients
  • Crab Cakes:
  • 1 cup cracker meal
  • 1 egg beaten
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 12 ounces lump crab meat, pick through it to find any shells
  • 1 heaping tbsp of crab boil seasoning, I think old bay is the best.
  • 1 tbsp baking powder
  • a handful flat leaf parsley, chopped
  • 1 lemon zested plus 1 lemon cut into wedges
  • 1 rib celery from the heart, finely chopped
  • several drops worchestershire sauce
  • several drops hot sauce, i like cholula brand
  • 2 tbsp mayo
  • Vegetable or Canola oil for frying
  • For Sauce:
  • 1 8ounce jar roasted red peppers, drained or 1 large freshly prepared one
  • 1 cup mayo
  • 1/2 cup prepared chili sauce

Directions
  1. Place cracker meal in a bowl and make a well in the center of meal.
  2. Beat egg with milk and pour into well.
  3. Moisten cracker meal with the egg liquid using the tines of a fork.
  4. Add crab meat, crab boil seasoning, baking powder, parsley, lemon zest, celery, worchestershire sauce, hot sauce, and mayo.
  5. Mix all ingredients well and form into 8 3inch patties.
  6. Add 1/2 inch oil into skillet and heat to medium high temperature.
  7. Fry cakes about 3-4 minutes on each side and drain onto a paper towel lined plate.
  8. Cook about 4 cakes at a time so the oil temp doesn't drop too low. The key is to keep the oil hot but not too hot.
  9. For the Sauce, combined red pepper, 1 cup mayo, and chili sauce in a food processor.
  10. Pulse or grind the ingreients until smooth.
  11. Transfer to a serving bowl and serve with the cakes!
