Steps
- Step 1
First, remove any small bones, pieces of cartilage, or skin from crab and salmon.
- Step 2
Transfer clean meat to a medium bowl and shred into small pieces with a fork (or your fingers). Add the soft bread crumbs, green onion, parsley, salt, pepper, and old bay seasoning to the salmon and crab and mix.
- Step 3
To the same bowl add the butter, egg (just one), and mayonnaise. Mix well.
- Step 4
Shape salmon and crab mixture into approximately 6-8 patties and transfer them to a baking sheet covered with parchment paper. Refrigerate for 1 hour.
- Step 5
After one hour, preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Line a clean baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside. Meanwhile, beat one egg with 1 tablespoon of water and transfer to a shallow bowl. In a separate dish place the fine breadcrumbs.
- Step 6
Remove the pre-formed cakes from the refrigerator and carefully, one-by-one, dip each cake first in the egg mixture, and next in the breadcrumbs to fully coat.
- Step 7
Bake cakes in the oven for 15-20 minutes, or until nicely golden brown.
- Step 8
Serve cakes with rice, fried or poached eggs, mixed greens, fresh fruit, and, of course, tartar sauce, if desired.
