I’ve seriously been into trying new dishes for dinner in 2013. It was definitely one of my New Year’s resolutions to sit down more often as a family. One of the dishes my hubby requested was Crab Cakes made from scratch. So I pulled out my mom’s old recipe and got to work!
Ingredients:
- 1 lb imitation crabmeat
- 1 1/4 cups breadcrumbs
- 2/3 cup mayonnaise
- 3 egg yolks
- 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
- 1/4 cup parsley flakes
- dash of black pepper
- dash of salt
Break apart the crab meat into small pieces and place in a large bowl. Add rest of ingredients and mix well (I used a small hand mixer).
Form into hamburger size patties and coat in flour on both sides.
Fry both sides until golden brown in a large skillet on medium high.
Now it’s time to make the remoulade sauce!
Ingredients:
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise
- 1/4 cup dill weed
- 1 tablespoon parsley
- 3 tablespoons horseradish sauce
- 1 tablespoon ketchup
- 4 tablespoons mustard
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tablespoon hot sauce
- dash of salt
- dash of pepper
Mix all together and serve at room temp. Delicious!
My whole family loves this recipe. Ok… maybe we tell my 5 year old they’re called Chicken Cakes, but as long as she eats them I’m happy!














Ooh you are going to be my new hero for this! I LOVE crabcakes with an unhealthy kind of devotion, but they’re always so expensive in the stores. Totally pinning this to try it!
Aww, thanks Kelly! We’re in love with them too. My hubby requested them again next week ;)
Looks delicious! Will definitely be trying this.
You’ll love them Wanda!
I have so been craving crab cakes. I am excited to try your recipe using imitation crab. I have only made them with real but the imitation is really tasty and cheaper to boot.
I LOVE crab……I am going to try these for sure!!
