Savannah Crabcakes Recipes

Steps:

• Melt butter in small skillet. Add celery and onion and saute until transparent; set aside.
• In a large mixing bowl, gently combine crab, 1/4 cup of the breadcrumbs, egg, onion and celery, mayonnaise, parsley and dill.
• Form cakes into 2-inch patties. Do not compress too much. Coat with remaining breadcrumbs.
• Fry in oil 3-4 minutes per side or until golden brown.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• For the crab cakes: Gently fold together the crabmeat, breadcrumbs, mayonnaise, chives, Dijon mustard, seafood seasoning, 1 teaspoon kosher salt, 1 teaspoon freshly ground pepper and the juice and zest of one lemon in a large bowl. Refrigerate the crab mixture for 15 minutes to firm up; this allows the breadcrumbs to absorb some of the liquid, helping the crab cakes bind together.
• Meanwhile, make the tartar sauce: Combine the mayonnaise, dill pickles, capers, chives, zest and juice of 1 lemon in a medium bowl and mix until combined. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Cover and refrigerate until ready to use.
• Scoop heaping half cups of the crab mixture and pat into 2 1/2-inch wide patties. Lightly press them together so they do not fall apart while cooking. You should have 8 patties.
• Heat 3 tablespoons unsalted butter and 3 tablespoons olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the crab cakes to the pan and cook until golden, about 2 minutes, then flip using a flat metal spatula. Continue to cook until lightly golden, about 1 1/2 minutes then transfer the pan to the oven. Cook until the crab cakes are completely heated through, about 10 minutes.
• Serve the crab cakes with the tartar sauce and lemon wedges.

Steps:

• Mix all ingredients together except flour and peanut oil. Shape into patties and dust with flour. Panfry in hot peanut oil over medium heat until browned, for 4 to 5 minutes. Flip and panfry other side until golden brown.
• In a bowl, combine chopped onion, pickle, mayonnaise, and House Seasoning and mix well. Serve alongside crab cakes with lemon wedges.
• Substitute 1/3 cup capers for 1/2 cup pickles and add a dash of cayenne pepper.

Steps:

• 1. Mix all ingredients together except flour and peanut oil. Shape into patties and dust with flour. Panfry in hot peanut oil over medium heat until browned,for 4 to 5 minutes. Flip and panfry other side until golden brown.
• 2. Tartar Sauce: In a bowl, combine chopped onion,pickle,mayonnaise and House seasoning and mix well. Serve alongside crabcakes with lemon wedges.

Steps:

• 1. Saute veggies in butter or oil until no longer crisp - about 3 minutes. Add the seasoning, milk and mustard.
• 2. Mix together and add egg, parsley and bread or cracker crumbs. Gently fold in the crab or fish. (If using fish, make sure it is shredded or broken up to give it same consistency as the crab meat.)
• 3. Form into 8 patties, and pat gently so they're about 1/2 inch thick. (If these are to be appetizers, make the patties smaller)
• 4. Stir together the cheese and bread crumbs, then pat onto both sides of cakes. Chill in fridge until firm, about 2 hours.
• 5. Place chilled patties on cookie sheet, sprinkle with oil/butter mixture. Bake at 400ºC for 7-10 minutes.
• 6. Serve with a dollop of remoulade sauce or mango salsa.
