03 Method

Step 1

Place crab in a large bowl.
Step 2

In a separate bowl, beat egg and whisk in mayonnaise, Old Bay, crumbled crackers, and chives until combined.
Step 3

Pour into a crab and very gently mix together avoiding breaking up the lumps of crab.
Step 4

Divide crab mixture into 4 equal sections. Using a ½ cup measuring cup filled with a section of the crab mixture and pack into the cup. Plop the molded crab onto a baking pan or dish.
Step 5

Repeat the previous step on the remaining 3 sections of crab and place the pan of crab in the freezer for 1 hour.
Step 6

After the hour has passed, remove the cakes from the freezer and flatten each one down so they are about an inch thick.
Step 7

Heat 2 Tbsps. of oil in a non-stick skillet on medium heat. Fry cakes about 5 minutes each side until golden and crispy. Avoid moving them unnecessarily as they are fragile.
Step 8

Transfer to a plate and toast up the buns in the same pan adding butter or oil if needed.
Step 9

Mayonnaise Sauce: Whisk sauce ingredients together while the crab cakes are in the freezer and store in the fridge. Dollop on each cake.
