Crabby Cakes!!

This is my first recipe given to me by a "celebrity chef," being my very good friend, Jill. She works on the crab docks in Trinidad and was able to score us some amazingly fresh Dungeness crab.

Prep time: 15 minutes
Cook time: 10 minutes

You will need:
-large bowl
-spoons!
-frying pan
-spatula

Ingredients:
-1/4 cup finely chopped parsley
-3 tbsp. mayonnaise
-2 tbsp. dijon mustard
-3/4 tsp. old bay seasoning
-1/2 tsp. Worcestershire sauce
-2 egg whites, beaten lightly
-1 lb. crab meat
-1 1/2 cup panko breading
-1 tbsp. olive oil
-1/2 small red onion, finely chopped

Directions:
-mix all ingredients in a large bowl
-shape into small patties (not very thick)
-warm up non-stick frying pan and add 2 tbsp. olive oil
-make sure it sizzles right when the patty hits the oil, or else it is not hot enough
-fry until both sides are golden-brown



Enjoy this wonderful recipe with a dipping sauce consisting of:
  -chopped roasted bell peppers
-1 cup mayonnaise
-Worcestershire to taste
-lemon juice


Cheers, Foodies! (and thanks, Jill!)
