Directions

Add all ingredients to a bowl and toss gently to mix well but retain the precious lumps of crab.
Divide the mixture into ½ cup (120g) patties about 3 ½” x ½” and lay onto a parchment lined tray.
Rest the tray of crab cakes in the freezer for 30 minutes help them set and chill without freezing through.
Over medium heat, add oil to your pan to up ¼” deep and drop in a little breadcrumb to test. The oil should be simmering.
Gently slide your crab cakes into the pan and cook on both sides until golden brown and warmed through.
Repeat until all crab cakes are cooked.
Serve warm with extra Amba Aioli or chill for later.
