A new twist on a classic recipe. Panko breadcrumbs are frequently used in Japanese cuisine and are coarser than regular bread crumbs. They are great for fried foods because they add crunch to the crust.
Ingredient List
Spicy Sauce
- 1/2 cup from 1 tub Mountain High™ Original Plain Whole Milk Yoghurt
- 1 teaspoon red pepper sauce
- 1 teaspoon grated lemon peel
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
Crab Cakes
- 2 refrigerated containers (8 oz each) pasteurized lump crabmeat, well drained, cartilage removed
- 2 1/2 cups panko breadcrumbs
- 1 egg, beaten
- 1/4 cup from 1 tub Mountain High™ Original Plain Whole Milk Yoghurt
- 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons finely chopped cilantro
- 1 tablespoon finely diced jalapeño
- 2 tablespoons finely diced onion
- 2 tablespoons finely diced red bell pepper
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon grated lemon peel
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tablespoon seafood seasoning
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
Preparation
- Combine Spicy Sauce ingredients in small bowl; cover and chill while preparing Crab Cakes.
- Mix crabmeat and breadcrumbs in a medium bowl; set aside.
- In a medium bowl, combine egg, yoghurt, mayonnaise, cilantro, jalapeno, onion, bell pepper, mustard, 1 teaspoon lemon peel, Worcestershire, and seafood seasoning. Mix in the crabmeat mixture.
- Place about 1/8th of the mixture into the palm of your hand and roll into a ball and flatten into a patty about two inches thick. Repeat with the remaining crab mixture, making a total of eight crab cakes.
- In 12-inch nonstick skillet, heat oil over medium heat. Cook patties in oil about 10 minutes, gently turning once, until golden brown and hot in center. Reduce heat if crab cakes become brown too quickly. Serve crab cakes with Chili Sauce.
