Swallow At The Hollow Crab Cakes Recipes

SWALLOW AT THE HOLLOW CRAB CAKES

Steps:

• Combine the shallots, parsley, capers and lemon juice in a small food processor and mix until smooth.
• Combine the eggs, crab base, seafood seasoning, Worcestershire sauce, mustard, salt and pepper along with the shallot mixture in a large bowl. Whisk until smooth, and then add the mayonnaise and mix again until smooth.
• Put the jumbo and lump crabmeat in a separate bowl and pick through for any missed shells. Add the crabmeat to the egg mixture and gently fold, being careful not to break up any lumps, until the crabmeat is completely coated.
• Add the breadcrumbs and "sift" with a rubber spatula until evenly distributed, again, being careful not to break up any lumps.
• Cover and refrigerate for 20 minutes, then fold one last time.
• Heat the broiler. Grease a baking sheet. Loosely shape sixteen 6-ounce crab cakes and place them on the baking sheet.
• Broil the crab cakes until golden brown and they measure 165 degrees F on an instant-read thermometer, 7 to 8 minutes.

CRAB CAKES

Steps:

• In a mixing bowl, combine the crab meat with the bread crumbs. Add the egg white, mayonnaise, sambal, chives, and lemon juice. Season with salt and pepper. Fold the ingredients gently but thoroughly, taking care not to mash the crabmeat. Shape the mixture into 4 uniform patties; they should be moist and just hold together.
• Coat a skillet with vegetable oil and place over medium heat. Fry the crab cakes until browned, about 4 minutes each side. Serve immediately on a bed of arugula with Brown Butter-Tomato Vinaigrette.
• Melt 2 tablespoons butter in a skillet over medium heat. When foam subsides, add the shallot and bay leaves. Cook for 1 minute to soften the shallots. Add the remaining butter and continue to cook until the butter begins to brown, about 3 minutes. Add the tomatoes, orange juice, chives, and sherry. Cook for 2 more minutes just to break down the tomatoes. Whisk in the olive oil, season with salt and pepper. Remove from heat and serve warm with Crab Cakes.

CRABBY CAKES

Steps:

• Set bread crumbs aside; combine remaining ingredients together until mixed well. Form mixture into 3-ounce cakes. Roll each cake in bread crumbs. Place cakes in freezer for 1 hour, to set up. Saute on medium heat until each cake is golden brown and heated through. Serve with special sauce.
• In a small bowl combine all of the ingredients and mix well. Refrigerate until ready to use.
