Chesapeake Bay Crab Cakes

1. 1

   In a large bowl, mix everything except the crabmeat.

2. 2

   When well combined, fold in the crab carefully, so you don't break it up.

3. 3

   Cover. Place in refrigerator for an hour to chill.

4. 4

   When ready to cook, form the mixture into 6 to 8 cakes (like making hamburger patties).

5. 5

   Place on a greased cookie sheet or baking tray, and bake at 450-degrees F until golden brown.

6. 6

   Or broil them: place the tray under it and broil for about 10 minutes until golden (cooking time will depend on the size of your cakes and your broiler/oven, so keep a careful eye on the crabcakes while cooking).

7. 7

   Serve with a squeeze of fresh lemon juice, or either cocktail or tartar sauce.
