Crab Cakes II

Directions

Ingredients :

1 pound fresh crab meat

1 egg

2 tablespoons mayonnaise

½ teaspoon ground mustard

1 dash Worcestershire sauce

salt and pepper to taste

4 ounces buttery round crackers

crushed

2 cups oil for frying

or as needed

Methods :

In a medium-size mixing bowl, combine crabmeat, egg, mayonnaise, mustard powder, Worcestershire sauce, and salt and pepper to taste.

In a large skillet, heat 1/4 inch of vegetable oil to a high heat. Roll heaping spoonfuls on the crab mixture in the crackers, then place the ball in the hot oil. Flatten lightly with a spatula so that the crab cake is 1/2 inch thick. Fry the crab cakes, flipping to ensure both sides get browned.
