Crab Cakes

Crab Cakes




Ingredients:
 

1 lb crab claw meat
2 eggs
Dash of Tabasco sauce
½ cup Vieux Carre Remoulade Sauce
¼ tsp salt
1/8 tsp pepper
1 Tbsp parsley, chopped

Directions:

Combine all above ingredients including the unbeaten eggs and mix lightly together.  Form mixture into desired size of cake or croquette.  Do not pack firmly, but allow the mixture to be light and spongy.  Roll out a package of crackers into fine crumbs.  Do not use prepared cracker crumbs.  Then pat the crumbs lightly on the crab cake and fry in deep fat just until golden brown.  Remove from hot fat just as soon as golden brown.
