American crabcakes, a favourite recipe from ” Fish” by Sophie Grigson and William Black. Serve hot from the pan with coleslaw and lemon wedges, and have a bottle of Tabasco on the table.

- 225 g fresh crabmeat, white and brown
- 1 free range egg
- 1 tbsp mayonnaise
- 2 tsps dijon mustard
- 1 tbsp finely chopped fresh parsley
- 4 spring onions trimmed and finely chopped
- 60-85 g dried breadcrumbs
- oil for grilling or frying
- sea salt and black pepper
Servings:
Instructions
- Place the crabmeat in a bowl and season with salt and pepper. Add all the remaining ingredients except for the crumbs and oil.
- Mix together and add enough crumbs to bind. Divide into four and pat each portion into a flat round cake about 2 cm thick.
- Fry the cakes in a little oil until browned on both sides. Alternatively brush the grill rack and crabcakes with oil and grill until well browned on each side, turning once. Serve immediately.
