CAJUN CRAB CAKES (NO BREADCRUMBS)
Two of the most crucial ingredients used in New Orleans cooking are Cajun spice and local seafood! Crab has always been my favorite type of shellfish, but I have never really cared much for crab cakes. The overpowering presence of seasoned breadcrumbs used in most recipes interferes with the sweet and delicate flavors of the fresh lump crabmeat. After years of experimenting with many of New Orleans' most famous crab cake recipes, I have created a flavorful, mouth-watering, delicious piece of work! The key is to use a small amount of crumbled crackers instead of breadcrumbs. I hope you enjoy!

Steps:
- Melt butter in a large, heavy skillet over medium heat. Stir in onion; cook and stir until the onion has softened and turned translucent, about 5 minutes.

- Season with 1 tablespoon parsley flakes, 2 teaspoons Creole seasoning, basil, pepper, dill weed, oregano, and thyme. Cook and stir until fragrant, 5 minutes more.
- Transfer cooked vegetables to a large bowl; allow to cool for about 10 minutes. Set skillet aside for later use.
- Stir the beaten eggs into the vegetables. Mix in the crabmeat and cracker crumbs with your hands, making sure not to break up the chunks of crab too much.
- Shape the crab mixture into 12 small cakes.
- Heat vegetable oil in the skillet over medium high heat.
- Pan-fry the crab cakes in batches until golden brown on each side, about 3 minutes.
- To make dipping sauce: Whisk together the mayonnaise, chile-garlic sauce, 2 teaspoon Creole seasoning, 2 teaspoon parsley flakes, and paprika.

CAJUN CRAWFISH/CRAB CAKES WITH SPICY RED PEPPER SAUCE
This is an adaption of a South Beach recipe. The features that make it a healthier and lower carb recipe are still in place, but I've added a Cajun twist to it. The result is a delicious crawfish patty with a tasty, spicy red pepper sauce. The original recipe calls for crab and it is just as tasty.

CAJUN POPCORN (BATTER-FRIED CRAWFISH)
Cajun popcorn is an irresistible appetizer made with deep-fried crawfish. Paul Prudhomme, the chef and owner of K-Paul's Restaurant in New Orleans, shared this recipe in 1983 with Craig Claiborne. It was featured in a menu for an economic summit held in Williamsburg, Va. Mr. Claiborne created three days of meal programming that he hoped would display the geographic and gastronomic diversity of the United States. If crawfish is not readily available where you live, look for frozen crawfish tails online.

Steps:
- Prepare the crawfish or shrimp and set aside.
- Blend eggs and milk; beat well.
- In a large bowl, combine the corn flour and all-purpose flour, sugar, salt, garlic, onion, peppers, thyme and bay leaves. Blend well. Gradually add the milk mixture, stirring well with a whisk. Let stand one hour at room temperature.
- Heat one inch of oil in a black iron skillet or use a deep-fat fryer. It is important that the oil be heated to a temperature as close to 370 degrees as possible. Coat the seafood with batter and drop it a few pieces at a time in the hot fat. This will be done in several batches. Cook, stirring occasionally, until golden brown all over, about two minutes total cooking time.
- As the food is cooked, drain well of paper towels. Serve with garlic mayonnaise on the side.
