Preparation
Step 1
Combine the crab meat, scallions, mayonnaise, 2 tablespoons (30 ml) of the bread crumbs, herb, and seasonings in a mixing bowl and toss gently to combine. Carefully fold in the egg with a rubber spatula until the mixture just clings together, adding more bread crumbs if necessary. Form into 4 to 6 patties and refrigerate for 30 minutes to overnight. Dredge lightly in flour. Heat the oil in a large skillet - preferably non-stick - over moderate heat and fry the crab cakes until crisp and browned, about 4 minutes per side. Serve with tartar sauce. Serves 4 to 6.
