Instructions
- To make the cakes, add the mash, crab meat, chopped spring onions, egg, breadcrumbs, sauce, salt and pepper to a large bowl.
- Mix all the ingredients to make a paste.
- Dust flour on a board, and use your hands to shape 12 patties - the flour will prevent them from sticking.

- Heat up the oil in a large frying pan, and fry the cakes in batches, they should need 2 minutes or so on each side until they are golden.
- Remove from the pan and transfer to a plate lined with kitchen towel to absorb the excess oil.
- Repeat with the remaining patties.
- To make the sauce, chop the gherkins and capers finely.
- Add them to a bowl together with the mayo and black pepper, and give it a good mix.
