Crab Cakes With Asian Slaw Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees F. In small bowl, whisk 2 tablespoons mayonnaise with soy sauce; set soy mayonnaise aside for serving.
• Pick over crabmeat to remove any pieces of shell or cartilage. In medium bowl, mix half of green onion, egg white, 2 tablespoons panko, and remaining 3 tablespoons mayonnaise until blended. Stir in crabmeat. Shape into four 3-in. patties. Coat patties with remaining panko, pressing to adhere.
• Spray 15-1/2" by 10-1/2" jelly-roll pan with nonstick cooking spray. Lightly spray crab cakes with nonstick cooking spray and place in prepared pan. Bake 15 to 20 minutes or until crab cakes are golden and cooked through, turning over once.
• Meanwhile, in large bowl, combine cabbage, vinegar, sesame oil, ginger, and remaining green onion. Serve crab cakes with Asian slaw and top with soy mayonnaise. Serve any remaining mayonnaise on the side.

Steps:

• Gently fold in 1 cup of the bread crumbs. Form into 2-ounce cakes. Coat the cakes with remaining 1 cup bread crumbs. Saute until golden brown on both sides. Place some Asian Slaw on a plate. Top with the crab cakes and Wasabi Mayonnaise.
• In a large bowl, combine the cabbage and carrots. In a separate bowl, mix the remaining ingredients together. Pour the vinegar mixture over the cabbage and carrots and mix well. Marinate, refrigerated, for 6 hours.
• Combine the wasabi paste and mayonnaise and mix well. Adjust consistency with heavy cream, the consistency should be that of a thick sauce.

Steps:

• Purée shrimp in a food processor (smaller is better) until you have a smooth paste, or chop and mash by hand. Add fish sauce. In a bowl, mix the shrimp purée, crab meat, egg, scallion, cilantro, chili, ginger and salt and pepper; add just enough bread crumbs to stiffen mixture a bit. Refrigerate mixture until you are ready to cook; it will be easier to shape into cakes if you refrigerate it for 30 minutes or more.
• Season flour with salt and pepper. Film bottom of a large skillet with oil and place over medium-high heat. Shape crab meat mixture into cakes 1 inch thick and as wide as you want. Dredge each in flour, and cook, adjusting heat as necessary and turning once (very gently), until golden brown on both sides, about 5 minutes a side. Serve with lime wedges.

Steps:

• Flake crabmeat with a fork in a medium bowl; stir in 1/4 cup mayonnaise, scallions, soy sauce, 1/2 teaspoon wasabi, and zest. Stir in 2 tablespoons breadcrumbs. Cover with plastic wrap; refrigerate 1 hour.
• Meanwhile, stir together remaining 3 tablespoons mayonnaise and 1 1/2 teaspoons wasabi in a small bowl. Using a vegetable peeler, make 3/4-by-2-inch ribbons from cucumber (you'll need about 24 ribbons, or 1 for each cake). Fold each ribbon into thirds.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, salt, and pepper. In a small bowl, beat eggs with the water. In a shallow bowl, stir together sesame seeds and remaining 1/2 cup breadcrumbs.
• Form 1 scant tablespoon crab mixture into a ball; dip in seasoned flour. Flatten into a 3/4-inch-thick disk about 1 1/4 inches in diameter. Repeat with remaining crab mixture. Dip cakes in egg mixture, then dredge in breadcrumb mixture.
• Heat oil in a large skillet over medium until hot but not smoking. Add half the crab cakes; cook, turning once, until golden and crisp on both sides, about 1 1/2 minutes. Using a slotted spatula, transfer to paper-towel-lined plates to drain. Repeat with the remaining cakes, adding more oil if needed.
• To serve, dot each crab cake with wasabi mayonnaise, and top with a cucumber ribbon and a piece of ginger.

Steps:

• Line rimmed baking sheet with waxed paper. Combine first 4 ingredients in large bowl. Stir in eggs. Using moist hands, shape mixture into 8 cakes, each about 3/4 inch thick. Arrange cakes on prepared sheet.
• Heat 2 tablespoons oil in each of 2 medium skillets over medium heat. Add 4 cakes to each. Cook until golden brown and cooked through, about 4 minutes per side.
• Mound slaw mix on 4 plates. Top each serving with 2 cakes. Serve with salsa, sour cream, and lime wedges.
• Available in the Asian foods section of some supermarkets and at Asian markets.
