Quick Crab Cakes and Tartar Sauce

"This recipe came from out of the blue. I had some leftovers in the fridge and decided to whip up something tasty! This recipe makes rather rich crab cakes, so a little is a lot! The tarter sauce is always a nice touch and is also extremely easy to mix up. Note: you can estimate everything!"

directions

  • Tartar Sauce.
  • Mix mayo, relish, salt, oregano, and basil until fully mixed. (If you prefer to you can let it chill in the fridge while making the crab cakes).
  • Crab Cakes.
  • Put crab and stuffing in a medium bowl.
  • Add beaten eggs, salt, pepper, and flour into bowl.
  • Mix well with a spatula: it should almost have the consistency of a dough (in order to form the patties).
  • Form patties: (my mixture made 4 large patties).
  • In a skillet or pan, add a light layer of oil (just enough to cover the bottom); turn to about 350 degrees or about medium high.
  • When hot, place patties in skillet/pan and let them cook for about 7-10 min or until brown on one side; flip and do the same to the other side until thoroughly cooked.

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

I'm a musician, heading into college, but I love to whip up fun foods here and there. I'll most likely be the chef of my future dorm, but I look forward to it! I love Paula Deen and Ina Garten...I watch their shows on Food Network often. I believe food and music should always accompany one another. Music and food can set the mood for any event; and they are usually the highlights of every event!
