Joe's Crab Cakes

I found this recipe online on "Pintrest" (of course!).

2/3 C. mayo
5 egg yolks
2 tsp. lemon juice
2 T. Worchestershire sauce
2 tsp. Dijon mustard
2 tsp. pepper
1/4 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. blackened seasoning
1/4 tsp. crushed red pepper flakes
1/2 C. fresh chopped parsley
2-1/2 C. breadcrumbs
2 lbs. crab meat

Mix all ingredients together. Make into patties (about 4 oz. each). Coat with flour and fry in 1-inch of oil until golden brown.


Talk about an EASY crab cake recipe that the whole family will love. I used canned real crab meat because I was limited on which stores I could make it to the day I made it. I also didn't put blackened seasoning in because that must be the ONE seasoning I do not have in my cupboard right now. All in all, these patties stayed together MUCH better than the imitation crab meat patties we've tried in the past. The only problem was that I have no "frying skills" and upon trying to flip the patties in the oil, I made about half of them fall apart. They still tasted AMAZING and I'm lucky that my husband doesn't care about the presentation of his dinner!! :)
