To prepare the crab cakes: Line a baking sheet with waxed paper. Whisk the first 8 ingredients in a large bowl to blend. Squeeze the crabmeat to exude most of the excess moisture, then mix the crabmeat and panko into the mayonnaise and herb mixture. Using a 3-inch ring mold, form the crab mixture into 8 patties on the prepared baking sheet. Cover and refrigerate at least 1 hour and up to 1 day.
Melt 2 tablespoons of butter with 1 tablespoon of oil in each of 2 heavy large skillets over medium-high heat. Add the crab cakes to the skillets and cook until golden on both sides, adding more butter and oil as needed, about 5 minutes total.
To prepare the tartar sauce: Whisk all the ingredients in a medium bowl to blend. Season with salt and pepper. Cover and refrigerate up to 2 days.
To serve: Mound the lettuce on 4 plates. Set 2 crab cakes on each plate. Top with the tartar sauce and serve with lemon wedges.

10/12/09 02:18 AM | yummyYes, there were a few ingredients that were not already in my cupboard or fridge, but they were not difficult to get at my local grocery store. It did take more prep time than indicated (esp since it took about 20 min just to get the crab meat out of the shells), but well worth the time and work! One of the complaints made by other readers was that it was not clear which ingredients were for the crab cakes and which were intended for the tartar sauce...well my suggestion would be to watch the video clip. It is made very clear. |

10/09/09 03:58 PM | Too many ingredients, too unavailableThere is nothing easy or quick about this recipe. It has so many ingredients, & most would require a trip to the grocery store. One of them--Japanese panko bread crumbs--would not even be available at any grocery store in my town of 55,000. The teaser on the AOL welcome screen was very misleading! |
