Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 20

1 pound jumbo lump crabmeat
1 lime, juiced
4 green onions, sliced thin
1 roasted red pepper, seeded, finely diced
2 roasted jalapenos, seeded, finely diced
1 teaspoon chili powder
1/2 bunch cilantro, leaves chopped
About 1/2 cup coarsely chopped roasted pumpkin seeds
About 3/4 cup mayonnaise
About 1/2 cup Japanese bread crumbs (panko), or more to taste
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
3 egg yolks
1/4 cup orange juice
1 1/2 cups clarified butter
1/4 cup water, more or less to adjust the consistency
1/2 bunch cilantro, leaves finely chopped
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 avocado, sliced, for garnish
Micro cilantro and other greens, tossed in extra-virgin olive oil, seasoned with salt and pepper, for garnish
Red chili oil, for garnish

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, fold all ingredients together being careful not to break up the crab. Mold mixture into 4 (4-inch) ring molds (I use a donut cutter with the center whole cutter removed). Coat a large saute pan, over medium-high heat and add the crab cakes. Cook until the exterior is browned and cake is warmed through, about 3 minutes per side. Transfer to a platter.
  • Cook egg yolks and orange juice over a double boiler until yolks thicken enough to coat the back of a spoon. Remove from heat and whisk in butter until the sauce thickens to a consistency similar to mayonnaise. Thin the sauce a bit with the water. Add cilantro and season with salt and pepper, to taste.
  • Top the crab cakes with avocado. Garnish with micro cilantro salad and red chili oil and serve with Citrus Cilantro Hollandaise.

GRAMMY'S CRAB CAKES



Grammy's Crab Cakes image

Enjoy these simple and savory crab cake taste sensations. I learned to make these from my beloved mother-in-law, but Grammy never uses a recipe. I measured every pinch and dash while she made them. This is one of our all-time family favorites. There are never any leftovers. Crab cakes are best if made with fresh crab, but they are great with canned crab as well.
