Steps:
- Beat the eggs lightly in a bowl.
- Add the crab meat, spring onion, mayonnaise, sweet chili sauce and breadcrumbs and stir well.
- Season, then cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
- To make the avocado salsa, combine all the ingredients in a bowl, season with kosher sea salt and fresh ground black pepper, and toss gently to combine.
- Using wet hands, form the crab mixture into 20 small flat cakes.
- Heat about 1 1/4 inches oil in a large heavy-based pan and cook the crab cakes over medium heat for about 3 minutes each side, or until golden brown on both sides.
- Drain well on paper towels or brown paper, and serve immediately, with avocado salsa to spoon onto the top.
- NOTE: In America, what we term as the Spring onion has a slightly more and defined bulb and is typically larger than the slender and more delicate green onion (scallion). The flavor has more bite and is somewhat hotter.
- IN ADVANCE: the crab mixture can be made a day ahead, then covered and refrigerated. Prepare the salsa close to serving time.
