Golden Crab Patties are a delightful seafood dish, perfect for any occasion. These patties are crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, bursting with the fresh flavors of crab and herbs.
Pick the crab meat from the shells, ensuring no shell fragments remain.
Using fresh crab meat enhances the flavor and texture of the patties.
In a mixing bowl, combine the egg, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, cayenne pepper, salt, white pepper, and parsley.
Whisk the mixture well to ensure even distribution of the spices.
Gently fold in the crab meat and half of the breadcrumbs into the mixture.
Be gentle to keep the crab meat chunks intact for better texture.
Form the mixture into small patties and coat them with the remaining breadcrumbs.
Refrigerate the patties for 30 minutes to help them hold their shape during cooking.
Heat the clarified butter in a frying pan over medium heat. Fry the patties until golden brown on both sides.
Cook in batches if necessary to avoid overcrowding the pan.
Serve the crab patties warm with your choice of dipping sauce or garnish.
A squeeze of fresh lemon juice adds a bright flavor to the patties.
