    3 tbsp mayo
    1 oz lemon juice
    Shallots, chopped, 4 tbsp
    1 tbsp & 1 tsp Old Bay seasoning

    1.5 cups bread crumbs


Directions

form into patties (around 8 hamburg sized patties)

Coat a large non-stick frying pan with Pam type spray COAT VERY WELL heat to med DON"T GET TOO HOT

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

    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. - 8/23/09

    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. - 11/21/08
