add mayo, eggs, shallots, bay seasoning and lemon juice

add patties, cook on Med, turning frequently for 5 to 6 minutes until heated through

NOTE: the trick here is to not burn the crab cakes. I used to make these with olive oil, and have switched the recipe to non-stick spray to reduce the calories/fat

Very Good	Awesome recipe....I wish I would have cut up the imitation crab a little more.	Submitted by: GAUVREAU99 (12/18/09)

Very Good	Made cakes according to the recipe, but they tasted rubbery. Modified as follows: 1/4 of the meat was shrimp, the rest imitation crab meat. Used 0.5 cup of fried bread crumbs, and 1 roll of light bread - bulky roll size, a 50 cent grocery store one. It worked great, making them again tomorrow.	Submitted by: KATERINKAM (8/23/09)

Incredible!	Excellent. I normally shell king crab for these, but unemployment brings drastic changes. The only change I made was to cut the Old Bay in half to reduce sodium.	Submitted by: CARBOHOLIC08 (11/21/08)

Incredible!	Even though the recipe left off the amount of breadcrumbs to be used, it was excellent (I used 1 1/2 cups). I also substituted egg beater for real eggs.	Submitted by: TSADAM (2/3/08)
