Ingredients

Aioli

3/4 cup Mayonnaise

2 tsp. finely shredded lemon peel

4 tsp. lemon juice

1 tbsp. fresh dill weed, minced

3 to 4 cloves garlic, minced or pressed

Crab Cakes

1/3 cup Mayonnaise

1 tbsp. Dijon Mustard

1 Large Brown Egg

1/8 tsp. cayenne

3 cups fresh bread crumbs

1/4 cup finely chopped celery

1/4 cup finely chopped red bell pepper

1/4 cup finely chopped green onion

4 cans (6 oz.) crab meat, well drained

Directions

For aioli, in a small bowl combine mayonnaise, lemon peel and juice, dill, and garlic. Mix well, cover, and refrigerate until crab cakes are ready.

For crab cakes, in a large bowl, combine mayonnaise, mustard, egg, cayenne, 1 cup bread crumbs, celery, red bell pepper, and green onion; mix well. Gently stir in crabmeat.

Place remaining 2 cups bread crumbs in a shallow dish. Shape crab into small cakes (about 1 1/2-in. diameter); coat with bread crumbs, pressing gently to adhere.

Place apart in two oiled 12- by- 17-in. rimmed baking pans. Bake in a 500° oven for 7 minutes, switch pan positions, and continue baking until golden brown, about 7 minutes longer. Serve hot with aioli.

Makes about 40 cakes
