Old Bay seasoning is what makes this crab cake recipe stand out from the rest. Also, fresh crab meat is preferable but can be expensive. If you don't have a tight budget, use Dungeness although canned crab meat will suffice. Serve with tartar sauce on the side.

Ingredients

1 pound crab meat
1/4 cup mayonnaise
2 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
2 tsp finely chopped green onions
2 eggs
1 1/2 tsp Old Bay seasoning
1 tsp dry mustard
1/4 tsp freshly ground black pepper
1/2 cup seasoned bread crumbs
1/2 tsp fresh lemon juice

Directions

Combine everything except the crab meat and bread crumbs. Mix well.
Add in the crab meat last and mix well.
Shape into 9 crab cakes and refrigerate for a couple of hours.
In a pan coated lightly with oil over medium heat, cook each crab cake for about 10 minutes total. Brown for 5 minutes per side until golden in color. Serve warm!
