New England Crab Cakes
- 1 lb crabmeat, drained and shells picked
- 1 large egg, beaten
- 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons green onions, finely sliced
- 1 tablespoon milk
- 1/2 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1/2 teaspoon hot sauce (or to taste)
- 1/4 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1/4 teaspoon Old Bay Seasoning
- 1 cup panko breadcrumbs, divided
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 2 tablespoons clarified butter
- 6 lemon wedges, for serving
- In a medium bowl, combine crabmeat, egg, mayo, green onions, milk, lemon juice, hot sauce, Worcestershire sauce, and Old Bay Seasoning. Mix the ingredients before adding 1/2 cup of panko; stir until completely incorporated. Divide crab mixture into 6 equal parts and form patties. Cover with plastic wrap and transfer to the fridge for 6 to 8 hours.
- A few hours later, place the remaining panko in a shallow bowl or plate. Remove the patties from the fridge and coat each of them in bread crumbs; transfer to a plate.
- In a medium skillet over medium-high heat, add oil and clarified butter. When hot but not smoking, place crab cakes and cook for 3 minutes per side or until golden brown. When cooked, transfer them on a plate lined with paper towel to absorb any excess grease.
- Serve crab cakes with remoulade sauce and a couple lemon wedges. Makes 6 cakes.
