Yield: 8 sliders
Ingredients:
1 pound lump crab meat
1 egg
2 tbsp plain Greek yogurt
10 saltine crackers, crushed
1 tbsp hot Chinese mustard
1/4 tsp lemon juice
1/8 tsp ground cayenne pepper
Salt and pepper, to taste
Olive oil, for frying
Directions:
Combine all of the above ingredients with the exception of the olive oil and stir until well mixed. Season to taste.
Heat a skillet to medium high and drizzle lightly with olive oil. While the pan is heating, form the crab mixture into small slider-sized patties. If desired, brown buns in the oven at 350 degrees for about 10 minutes.
Cook the crab cakes in the pan until crisp and brown, about 5 minutes per side. Remove and set on paper towels to drain. Place on buns, add desired toppings (see below!) and serve!
I served this with a Spicy Lime Yogurt Spread and Pineapple Kiwi Salsa - see the yogurt spread recipe below. It was a fresh tasting combination with a nice spicy kick. Enjoy!
Spicy Lime Yogurt Spread:
1/4 cup plain Green yogurt
2 tsp Thai chili garlic sauce
2 tsp lime juice
Salt and pepper, to taste
Tips: If you are on a budget, canned crab is cheap and tastes just fine in crab cakes!
