Yep, that looks good. It should almost fall apart just from looking at it. Wish I could taste it. The crab cakes in Texas SUCK! No old bay, no back fin. Just gobs of mayo, claw meat and bread crumbs. Yum Yum. Thank god I made it to Bal-more a few weeks ago.

I just made my own crab cakes this last weekend.  More like potato cakes.  I modified a recipe for Smoked Salmon Potato cakes I found over a decade ago. 

The topping I use for my crab cakes is a Caper-Dill sauce.  Really tasty for other fish as well:

3/4 cup mayo

1/2 cup sour cream

1/4 teaspoon grated lemon rind

2 tablespoons lemon juice

1 tablespoon drained capers (or more)

2 teaspoons chopped fresh dill

1 teaspoon dijon mustrd

1/4 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon pepper.

I had my mother and aunt over for dinner last night and served them Bryan's crab cakes.  The recipe was so easy to follow and make.  I realized when I got home from the grocery store that I forgot spring onions so in their place I used some parsley, thyme, and shallots.  The three new ingredients added an nice flavor in place of the onions.  Thanks Bryan for sharing your recipe!  It will be my "go-to" crab cake recipe now!
