Crab Cakes to Get us Through until Training Camp Begins

I’ve been so desperate for hockey that I’ve been reduced to watching old programs on the NHL network. So I decided to cook my way through until the 15th of September and hope that training camp will begin. I comforted my self with a nice easy recipe that requires few ingredients and from start to finish takes about 30 minutes. Now that sounds like something we could make just before a game and enjoy after the game. I’m tired of sitting around waiting so….. Lets Cook.

Ingredients:

16 oz. can crab meat

1 egg

3 tbsp. mayonnaise

1 tbsp. Dijon mustard

1 tsp. dry mustard

1 tbsp. Worcestershire sauce

1 tsp. lemon juice

3/4 cup bread crumbs (panko is the best)

1 tsp. Old Bay seasoning

Directions: 

Pre heat oven to 400 degrees F. Mix all ingredients except crab and bread crumbs together in a medium bowl. Gently fold in crab meat and bread crumbs. Shape in to patties about 1/2-inch thick. Place on a foil covered baking pan. Bake for  15 minutes until golden brown. Serve with skillet roasted potatoes and mushrooms.

A nice wedge of lettuce drizzled with thousand island dressing and a glass of white wine turns this 30 minute meal into a gourmet feast. Enjoy
