With your hands or a soft spatula, gently fold the mixture into the crab meat Again, try not to break up the lumps. Divide crab meat into 6 equal parts and then form into patties. Place in metal pan and add about 1/4 inch water to the bottom of the pan. Saute in skillet or broil the crab cakes for about 15 minutes, keeping a close watch on them. The water in the pan turns to steam and helps keep the crab cakes more moist. If the water evaporates before the crab cakes are completely heated, add a little more water.

2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 tablespoon chopped parsley leaves

1 cup olive oil
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper

Steps:

  • Heat the olive oil in a medium saute pan over medium heat. Add the onions, celery, and peppers. Season with salt and pepper. Saute for 5 minutes. Add the garlic and continue to saute for 2 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat and cool for 5 minutes. In a medium mixing bowl, combine the crabmeat, green onions, grated cheese, parsley, Creole mustard, and juice of 1 lemon. Mix to incorporate. Set the mixture aside.
  • In a food processor with a metal blade, process 1 egg and remaining lemon juice for 1 minute. With the machine running, slowly add 1 cupvegetable oil. The mixture will be thick after all the oil is incorporated. Add the Worcestershire and hot sauce, process the mixture to incorporate. Season the mayonnaise with salt and pepper.
  • Fold the cooled sauteed vegetables into the crab mixture. Fold 1/2 cup of the mayonnaise and 3/4 cup of the bread crumbs into the crab mixture. Mix gently but thoroughly. In a shallow bowl, season the flour with 1 teaspoon of the Creole seasoning and the white pepper. In another bowl, whisk the remaining egg with the water. Finally in 1 bowl, combine the remaining bread crumbs and 1 teaspoon Creole seasoning together. Portion the filling into 1/3 cup balls. Form the balls into patties, about 1-inch thick. Pour the remaining 2 1/2 cups oil into a saute pan and heat to 360 degrees F, about 2 minutes. Dredge the cakes in the seasoned flour. Dip the cakes in the egg wash, letting the excess drip off. Dredge the cakes in the seasoned bread crumbs, covering the cakes completely. Gently lay the cakes in the oil and fry for 4 minutes on each side. Remove the cakes from the oil and drain on a paper-lined plate. Season the cakes with the remaining Creole seasoning. Serve with Maw-Maw's Slaw and Creole Tartar Sauce.
  • Place the white cabbage, red cabbage, greens, red onions, green onions, and parsley in a large salad bowl. In a small bowl, combine the mayonnaise, mustard, salt, black pepper, cayenne, and sugar. Mix well. Add the mixture to the greens and toss to mix thoroughly. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
  • Serve chilled. The slaw can be made (or chilled) 3 hours ahead.
  • Put the egg, garlic, lemon juice, parsley, and green onions in a food processor and puree for 15 seconds. With the processor running, pour the oil through the feed tube in a steady stream. Add the cayenne, mustard, and salt and pulse once or twice to blend. Cover and let sit for 1 hour in the refrigerator before using. Best if used within 24 hours.

1 tablespoon unsalted butter
2 tablespoons finely chopped red bell pepper
2 tablespoons finely chopped yellow onion
2 tablespoons finely chopped celery
1/2 teaspoon Essence, plus more to taste, recipe follows
1/4 cup mayonnaise, preferably homemade
1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
1 1/2 teaspoons chopped flat-leaf parsley
1/4 cup panko, plus 1 1/2 cups*
Salt
1/2 cup vegetable oil, plus more if needed
1 recipe Sweet Corn Maque Choux, recipe follows
1 recipe Tomato Jam, recipe follows
1 teaspoon olive oil
2 teaspoons unsalted butter
1/2 cup small-diced onion
1/4 cup small-diced red bell pepper
1/4 cup small-diced celery
2 cups sweet yellow corn
1 teaspoon minced garlic
1 teaspoon Essence
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/2 cup heavy cream
1/2 cup whole milk
Tomato Jam:
1 cup peeled, seeded and chopped tomatoes
1/2 cup rice wine vinegar
2 tablespoons sugar
1 tablespoon light corn syrup
1 tablespoon honey
1 clove garlic, smashed
1 pinch cayenne pepper

Steps:

  • Carefully pick through the crabmeat, discarding any shells or cartilage. Try to retain as many lumps as possible. Transfer to a mixing bowl and refrigerate while you prepare the remaining ingredients. In a medium skillet melt the butter and cook the red bell pepper, onion, and celery until softened and translucent, about 4 minutes. Season with 1/2 teaspoon of Essence and set aside to cool. When the vegetables have cooled, add them to the crabmeat, along with mayonnaise, lemon juice, parsley, and 1/4 cup of the panko. Mix gently but thoroughly to combine. Add salt, to taste. Divide the crab cake mixture into 8 equal portions and, using your hands, form into cakes about 2 1/2 to 3-inches in diameter. Dredge the crab cakes in the remaining panko until cakes are completely coated on all sides. In a medium skillet heat half of the vegetable oil over medium heat until hot but not smoking and add as many crab cakes as will fit comfortably, usually 3 to 4. Cook until golden brown on both sides and warmed through, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Transfer to paper towels to drain briefly while you add the remaining oil and cook the remaining crab cakes. Gently transfer to serving plates and serve with the Sweet Corn Maque Choux and a dollop of the Tomato Jam. Sweet Corn Maque Choux: 1 teaspoon olive oil 2 teaspoons unsalted butter 1/2 cup small-diced onion 1/4 cup small-diced red bell pepper 1/4 cup small-diced celery 2 cups sweet yellow corn 1 teaspoon minced garlic 1 teaspoon Essence 1/2 teaspoon salt 1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper 1/2 cup heavy cream 1/2 cup whole milk Heat a 10-inch saute pan over medium heat. Add the olive oil and butter to the pan and cook until the butter is melted, about 45 seconds. Add the onions, bell peppers and celery to the pan and cook, stirring often, until the onions are translucent, and the peppers and celery are soft, about 4 minutes. Add the corn, garlic, Essence, salt and cayenne to the pan and cook, stirring often, for 10 minutes. Add the cream and milk to the pan and reduce the heat to low. Continue to cook the corn until tender and most of the cream has reduced and the maque choux is creamy, 3 to 4 minutes. Tomato Jam: 1 cup peeled, seeded and chopped tomatoes 1/2 cup rice wine vinegar 2 tablespoons sugar 1 tablespoon light corn syrup 1 tablespoon honey 1 clove garlic, smashed 1 pinch cayenne pepper Combine all the ingredients in a small saucepan and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to a simmer and cook, stirring occasionally, until most of the liquid has evaporated, about 20 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat and allow to cool to room temperature before serving.
