Crab Cakes With Roasted Red Pepper Mayo Food

CRAB CAKES WITH ROASTED RED PEPPER SAUCE

Steps:

• Place cracker meal in a bowl and make a well in the center of the meal. Beat egg with milk and pour into well. Moisten cracker meal and combine liquid with meal using the tines of a fork. Add crab meat, crab boil seasoning, baking powder, parsley, lemon zest, celery, Worcestershire, hot pepper sauce, and mayonnaise to the bowl. Mix all ingredients well and form into 8 (3-inch) patties. Add 1/2-inch vegetable or canola oil to a skillet and heat to medium high temperature. Fry cakes 3 minutes on each side and drain on paper towel lined plate. Cook 4 cakes at a time, so that oil temp does not drop too low.
• For red pepper sauce, combine drained red peppers in a food processor bowl with mayonnaise and chili sauce. Pulse/grind the ingredients into a smooth sauce. Transfer sauce to a small serving dish.
• Serve crab cakes with sauce and lemon wedges.

SPICY, CHEESY CRAB CAKES WITH ROASTED RED PEPPER SAUCE

Steps:

• If using, prepare the sauce by blending the mayo and roasted peppers in a food processor until smooth. Set aside.
• Whisk eggs in a medium bowl. Stir in crab, both cheeses, chives, and a quarter cup of the breadcrumbs.
• Pour the remaining half a cup of breadcrumbs into a shallow dish.
• Line a large plate or baking sheet with waxed paper. Line a second large plate or baking sheet with paper towels (the latter for draining the finished crab cakes).
• Form heaping tablespoons of the crab mixture into cakes of a quarter-inch thickness, coat each with the crumbs, and place on the waxed paper-lined plate or baking sheet.
• In a large skillet over medium high heat, heat the vegetable oil until a droplet of water thrown in starts to sizzle or until bubbles start to gather around the tip of a wooden spoon placed in the oil, whatever method you choose.
• Fry cakes, a few at a time, until golden on both sides, approximately three minutes total for each batch.
• As cakes cook, remove them to the paper-towel lined baking sheet.
• When all cakes are cooked, move to serving platter, arranging around a bowl of the sauce, if you like.
• These are also really good served with a squirt of Kewpie mayonnaise (Japanese mayo; it's sweeter) mixed with a few drops of hot sauce; I like to use Tapatio.

CRAB CAKES WITH CREOLE MUSTARD AIOLI AND GRILLED CORN, RED ONION & RED PEPPER SALAD

Steps:

• For the crab cakes: To a large bowl, add the mayonnaise, Creole mustard, Worcestershire sauce, seafood seasoning, egg, lemon zest and juice and chives. Mix thoroughly to combine. Add the saltine cracker crumbs. Add the crabmeat. Gently fold the crab into the mixture, being careful not to break up the meat too much.
• Form the mixture into four equal-sized crab cakes. Preheat a large saute pan over medium-high heat with some canola oil until it shimmers. Gently place the crab cakes into the pan and cook until golden brown, 3 to 4 minutes. Flip, and cook until golden, 2 to 3 minutes.
• For the salad: Preheat a grill pan over high heat. Place the corn and onions onto the grill pan and grill until charred, 5 to 6 minutes. Flip, then cook until charred and the onions are softened, another 4 to 5 minutes. Remove the corn kernels from the cobs and dice the grilled onions. Set aside.
• Place the red bell pepper onto an open flame on your stovetop. Cook, flipping occasionally, until completely black and charred, about 5 minutes. (If you don't have a gas stovetop, you can broil the pepper in the oven on high, turning occasionally, until charred.) Transfer to a bowl and cover with plastic wrap to steam until the skin pulls away, about 10 minutes. Remove the skin from the bell pepper and rinse under water to ensure all of the black char is removed. Remove the stem, ribs and seeds from the roasted pepper and dice.
• To a large bowl, add the corn kernels, onions, roasted peppers, cilantro, 2 tablespoons of olive oil, red wine vinegar, red pepper flakes and kosher salt to taste. Toss to combine. In a separate bowl, add the arugula, lemon juice, a drizzle of olive oil and kosher salt to taste. Toss to combine.
• For the aioli: To a bowl, add the mayonnaise, Creole mustard, cornichons, cornichon juice, shallots and kosher salt to taste. Mix to combine.
• To serve, place the arugula onto each plate and nestle some of the corn, red onion and red pepper salad next to it. Top with a crab cake and drizzle some of the aioli around the crab cake. Enjoy!

CRAB CAKES WITH ROASTED PEPPER REMOULADE SAUCE

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine crabmeat, capers, egg, bread crumbs, mayonnaise, seafood seasoning, onion, celery, and red pepper. Shape mixture into 10 patties. Cover and chill for 1 hour.
• Meanwhile in a food processor, combine the remoulade sauce and roasted peppers. Cover and process until smooth. Transfer to a bowl; cover and chill until serving.
• In a large skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat. Cook the crab cakes in batches until golden brown, about 5 minutes per side. Serve warm with remoulade sauce. Garnish with lemon wedges if desired.

CRAB CAKES WITH RED BELL PEPPER

Steps:

• In a bowl combine the crab meat, the salt, and black pepper to taste. In a small saucepan cook the bell pepper in 3 tablespoons of the butter over moderately low heat, stirring, until it is softened. Remove the pan from the heat, stir in the lemon juice, the beaten egg, and the Worcestershire sauce, and stir the mixture into the crab meat. Add the chopped hard-boiled egg and the bread crumbs, combine the mixture gently but thoroughly, and form it into 4 patties, each about 1/2 inch thick.
• In a large heavy skillet heat the oil with the remaining 1 tablespoon butter over moderately high heat until the foam subsides and in the fat sauté the crab cakes, turning them carefully, for 4 to 5 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and crisp. Serve the crab cakes with the lemon wedges, the remaining hard-boiled egg, and the tartar sauce.
