Andrea’s Crab Cakes
We have a lot of appetizer buffet get-togethers out here on the Cape and Andrea inevitably is asked to bring this flavorful favorite dish as her contribution. They’re usually the first plate to disappear from the table, so those into arriving ‘fashionably late’ are sure to miss out!
1 stalk celery diced small
1 sm. onion diced small
1/2 small green pepper diced small
1/2 c dried bread crumbs
1 egg 1/2 c. mayonnaise
1/2 tsp prepared mustard (I used Grey Poupon and would add more the next time)
1 tsp seasoned salt
2 c or 1 lb. crab meat
- Use foil shells or clean and prepare 10 crab shells or use small baking dish. Spray with Pam.
- Saute celery, onion, and green pepper in pan with olive oil. Cool.
- Mix remaining ingredients in a mixing bowl and then mix in sauted vegetables when they are cool. Place in shells or baking container. Brush with butter (I topped with fresh bread crumbs and butter).
- Bake in 350 degree oven for 20-25 minutes.
