Ingredients
1 pound jumbo lump, lump or backfin crab meat
1 cup Hellman's light mayonnaise
1/2 teaspoon fresh-squeezed lemon juice
1 egg, beaten
1/4 cup fine, unseasoned bread crumbs (or about 8 plain saltine crackers, crushed)
1 teaspoon fresh parsley, chopped fine (or ½ tsp. dried flakes)
1/2 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon Old Bay seasoning
Preparation
1
In a large bowl, mix everything except the crabmeat.
2
When well combined, fold in the crab carefully, so you don't break it up.
3
Cover. Place in refrigerator for an hour to chill.
4
When ready to cook, form the mixture into 6 to 8 cakes (like making hamburger patties).
6
Or broil them: place the tray under it and broil for about 10 minutes until golden (cooking time will depend on the size of your cakes and your broiler/oven, so keep a careful eye on the crabcakes while cooking).
