Instructions
- Sauté the onion and red bell pepper in olive oil for about 5 minutes.
- Place the crab, wild rice, onion and red pepper, egg, panko crumbs, mayonnaise, mustard, hot sauce, salt and pepper in large bowl and briefly and gently mix until combined.
- Refrigerate for at least an hour as they will hold their form better.
- While the mixture is chilling, make the sauce: combine the mayonnaise, mustard and hot sauce and stir until evenly combined. Keep refrigerated
- When almost ready to serve the crab cakes, form the mixture into patties and dredge in breadcrumbs, then place on a tray.
- Heat some olive oil in a nonstick sauté pan over medium high heat, then add a few cakes. Fry until golden brown on each side.
- Remove from pan and place on paper towel lined plate, then place on serving platter. Serve with sauce, while hot.
Notes
- If you want to make it with fresh crab meat, these are even better.
