Crab Cakes

* all measurements are a guess, I don’t measure stuff *

crab (1 1/2 cups)
panko (3/4 – 1 cup)
egg (2)
grainy mustard (big Tbsp)
lemon juice (1/2 lemon)
garlic (one clove, minced)
chives (3 Tbsp, chopped)
S & P

Combine all ingredients and mix thoroughly.

form into cakes and let rest in the fridge for at least a half hour before pan frying in grape seed oil.

We served them the other night with a Chipotle Dressing

sour cream (1 cup)
chipotles (to taste)
lemon juice (1/2 lemon)
anchovies (1)
garlic (3 cloves)
S & P

Puree together and let stand, it will thicken up again… and this will taste better the next day.
