Makes twelve 3-ounce (85 g) cakes
Approximate preparation time: 10 minutes plus
20 minutes cooking time
Look through crabmeat to make sure there are no shells;
reserve in refrigerator. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Coat a
baking sheet with nonstick cooking spray.
Insert the large metal chopping blade into the large work bowl
of the Cuisinart
®
Food Processor. With the machine running,
drop the garlic through the small feed tube to chop. Add the
peppers, green onion and parsley and pulse to coarsely chop,
about 10 to 12 pulses.
Put the oil into a large skillet placed over medium heat. Cook
chopped vegetables with salt and pepper until soft, about 5 to
7 minutes. Remove and reserve in a large mixing bowl.
Once vegetables have cooled slightly, add the crab, eggs,
breadcrumbs, mayonnaise, Worcestershire, Old Bay, Dijon and
a dash or two of hot sauce if using to the mixing bowl. Mix
thoroughly but carefully, so not to break up the crab too much.
Form mixture into 2-inch (5 cm) round cakes.
Place on prepared baking sheet and bake until crabcakes are
evenly golden, about 15 to 20 minutes.
TIP: Substitute cooked fi sh fi llet for the crab to make tasty
fi shcakes.
