Last night was my mom's birthday, and my dad made her these low fat crab cakes. They were phenominal!!! I would suggest you try them, even if you aren't on a diet!
1 pound blue crabmeat
1 tablespoon small diced red bell pepper
1 tablespoon small diced green bell pepper
1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh parsley leaves
1 tablespoon light mayonnaise
2 eggs
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 1/2 teaspoons Maryland-style crab seasoning (recommended: Old Bay can also use Creole Seasoning)
1 tablespoon small diced red bell pepper
1 tablespoon small diced green bell pepper
1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh parsley leaves
1 tablespoon light mayonnaise
2 eggs
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 1/2 teaspoons Maryland-style crab seasoning (recommended: Old Bay can also use Creole Seasoning)
1/2 cup bread crumbs (from sliced bread - whole wheat works best)
2 tablespoons canola oil
2 tablespoons canola oil
Directions:
In a large bowl, mix all ingredients, except oil until blended. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
With a tablespoon, carefully spoon poker-chip size mini-cakes into the pan. (The batter will be loose, but once the egg in the mix starts to cook they will hold together fine.)
Cook on 1 side until firm, about 2 minutes, and then flip and cook for about 1 more minute.
Cook in batches as necessary. Serve hot with mustard sauce.

Mustard Sauce:
1/4 cup light mayonnaise
1/4 cup Dijon mustard
1/4 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
1/4 cup Dijon mustard
1/4 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
Mix all ingredients together in a small bowl. Refrigerate until ready to serve.

Yum! Thanks for sharing.
These look good but since I don't have access to it in OZ what's in Maryland style crab seasoning?
