Crabcakes
1# shredded crabmeat ( sno crab - leg and body works quite well )
3 T . Mayonnaise
3 large eggs ( mixed well )
juice from 1 lemon
approx. 1 T. fresh chopped dill
¼ Cup chopped scallions
dash of worcestershire
2 ½ cups plain breadcrumbs
a pinch of salt and pepper
vegetable oil ( 2 oz. )
Procedure : Mix all ingredients with 1 ½ cups of breadcrumbs and form into round balls and then flatten . ¼ to ½ inch thick is good. coat with remaining bread crumbs Heat vegetable oil in frying pan and when hot, cook crabcakes on both sides until golden brown.when you take out of pan , put on paper towel to remove excess oil. Serve with lemon wedges.
Rules :
Remember , the first crabcake to come out of the pan is a test and the person who made it gets to eat it on the spot without jeopardizing the amount he or she gets for dinner or lunch. Seeing how easy this dish is , everyone will volunteer.
You can omit the scallions or dill or both if you wish.
If anybody questions your right to eat the first crabcake , just send them to this page to prove it.
Thank you and enjoy...
