An easy recipe for Crab Cakes...just, dont overmix and don't brake the crab lumps. Yields: 6 patty- servings.

-8 crackers
-2 Tablespoons mayonnaise
-1 teaspoon mustard
-1/4 teaspoon Worcestershire
-1/2 teaspoon Old Bay seasoning
-chopped fresh parsley/and/or chopped fresh dill
-salt to taste
-2 Tablespoons vegetable oil

1. Check the crab meat in case there is any cartilage left, and place it in a bowl aside.

2. Crash the crackers very fine and mix with all other ingredients. Lightly, fold in crab meat, and only mix enough to combine the ingredients. Shape into 6 crab cakes, and refrigerate for at least one hour.

3. Heat 2 Tablespoons of vegetable oil, and sautee for 3-5 minutes per side, until golden brown .

4. Garnish with tartar sauce, remoulade, or with just a wedge of lemon.
