Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. Drain crabmeat of all excess liquid and place in a stainless bowl. Add bread crumbs and toss to distribute evenly. In a separate bowl, combine remaining ingredients with a wire whip. Pour over crabmeat mixture. Mix gently to combine all ingredients. Divide evenly into 6 portions and form into balls. Flatten slightly to 1 inch thick. Do not make perfectly flat, because cake should have grooves. Place portioned crab cakes on a non stick cookie sheet, slightly oiled with clarified butter. Place in a preheated 450 degree oven and bake approximately 5 minutes on first side. Turn crab cake over using a metal spatula. Finish cooking - approximately 4 minutes. Place crab cakes in center of plate. Garnish with lemon and 1 Tbsp. of mustard mayonnaise sauce per crab cake.
  2. Bread crumbs:
  3. Tbsp. garlic, finely chopped
  4. Tsp. shallots, finely chopped
  5. Tsp. parsley, fresh, finely chopped
  6. Cup white bread crumbs
  7. /8 tsp. salt
  8. /8 tsp. white pepper, ground

  11. 1/2 cup mayonnaise, heavy
  12. Tsp. Grey Poupon Dijon Mustard
  13. 1/4 tsp. Worcestershire sauce
  14. 1/2 tsp. Horseradish, prepared
  15. Mix all ingredients thoroughly in a stainless steel mixing bowl using a wire whip. You will use 2 Tbsp. to prepare crab cakes, and the balance will be served on the side.
