Steps:
- In a large bowl, add zucchini, eggs, breadcrumbs, Old Bay, black pepper, mayonnaise and parsley. Mix until everything is evenly combined.
- Scoop out 1/3 cup (packed) of zucchini batter. Press the zucchini firmly into the cup. You want to make sure you really compact the zucchini batter so that the cakes don't fall apart. Flip the measuring cup upside down to release the zucchini cake onto a sheet of parchment paper. The zucchini should slide out still holding its form from the cup. Repeat with remaining zucchini batter.
- In a medium skillet, add oil and bring to medium high heat. Depending on the size of your pan you may need more oil. You need a little more than 1/4 inch of oil so that the oil reaches the halfway point on the zucchini cakes during cooking. Gently slide a few of the crab cakes into the hot oil and cook a few minutes on each side until they are golden and crispy on both sides. Place cooked crab cakes onto a paper towel to soak up some of the excess oil. Repeat until all crab cakes are cooked. Serve crab cakes while they are still warm, with tartar sauce and fresh lemon juice.
