Crabmeat Cakes with Mustard Sauce

• 6 slices white bread, crusts removed
• 1 pound lump crabmeat, picked over for shells
• 1/2 cup mayonnaise
• 1 large egg yolk
• 1 stalk celery, finely chopped
• 1/4 cup finely chopped dill pickles
• 1 tablespoon unsalted butter, for frying
• 1 tablespoon olive oil, for frying
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
• 2 teaspoons curry powder
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• 1/2 cup low-sodium chicken broth
• 1 cup milk
• 3 tablespoons whole-grain mustard
• 2 teaspoons yellow mustard seeds
• Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper

1. Prepare the crab cakes: Pulse the bread in a food processor to make coarse crumbs; spread out the crumbs on a sheet pan.
2. In a large bowl, mix the crab, mayonnaise, egg yolk, celery and pickles.
3. Form into 8 oval-shaped cakes.
4. Dredge each crab cake in the breadcrumbs, coating them all over; place on a plate and refrigerate at least 1 hour.
5. Make the sauce: In a small saucepan, melt 1 tablespoon butter.
6. Stir in the flour, curry powder and paprika; cook until the flour and spices lose their raw smell, 1 to 2 minutes.
7. Add the chicken broth and milk.
8. Bring to a simmer and cook, stirring, until thickened, 5 minutes.
9. Stir in the mustard and mustard seeds; simmer to develop the flavors, about 5 more minutes.
10. Whisk in the remaining 1 tablespoon butter; add 1/2 teaspoon salt, and pepper to taste.
11. Keep warm until ready to serve.
12. Fry the crab cakes: Melt the 1 tablespoon butter with 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet.
13. Add the crab cakes; cook until browned on the bottom, 2 to 3 minutes.
14. Turn and cook until evenly browned on all sides.
15. Serve with the mustard sauce.
