Crab and Shrimp Cakes Recipe

Diabetes Recipe
This classic is lower in fat than traditional crab cake recipes. Use light mayonnaise and egg substitute to keep the calories low.

Ingredients

    • 1/2 cup egg substitute
    • 1/2 cup light mayonnaise
    • 1/4 tsp fresh ground black pepper
    • 1/4 tsp cayenne pepper
    • 1 tsp paprika
    • 1/2 tsp dry mustard
    • 1/2 tsp crushed celery seed
    • 1 tsp Old Bay Seasoning
    • 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
    • 1 lb lump crab meat
    • 1/4 lb cooked shrimp, finely chopped
    • 1/2 cup finely chopped yellow onion
    • 3/4 cup bread crumbs
    • 2 Tbsp grapeseed oil for frying

Preparation

    • In a medium mixing bowl combine egg substitute, mayonnaise, peppers, paprika, mustard, celery seed, Old Bay and Worcestershire sauce. Mix well.
    • In a separate bowl combine crab meat, shrimp, onions, and bread crumbs. Toss to evenly distribute ingredients. Add to egg mixture and mix well.
    • Divide crab mixture into 8 portions and shape into patties. Dip patties in remaining bread crumbs on both sides, pressing lightly to coat.
    • Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat. Cook patties until golden brown on both sides.
