Down East Crab Cakes

Down East Crab Cakes


1. Combine crabmeat, breadcrumbs, mustard, hot sauce, bell pepper, scallions, celery and egg in a large bowl.

2. Add just enough mayonnaise to hold the ingredients together, being careful not to make it so moist that the mixture will fall apart.

3. Divide into 8 patties.

4. Coat with additional bread crumbs, then fry, four at a time, in hot oil until crispy and brown on all sides.

5. ***Patties can be made ahead of time and frozen- they freeze very well.
