    Arrow Midwest crab cakes


    Midwest "Crab" Cakes
    Serves 8
    Delicious flaky fish mixed with the perfect seasoning and fried to a golden crisp.
    Ingredients
    One pack McCormick's or Zatarans crab boil
    1 red bell pepper
    1/2 medium onion
    1 cup saltine crackers finely crushed (almost one sleeve)
    1/3 cup mayo
    1 large egg beaten
    2 tsp. Old Bay Seasoning
    2 tsp. Worcestershire sauce
    2 tsp. yellow mustard
    1/4 tsp. hot sauce
    1 lb. trout, crappie or other white fish filets
    Butter
    Remoulade Sauce
    1/3 cup mayo
    1 tbsp. ketchup
    1 tbsp. sweet pickle relish
    2 tsp. Dijon mustard
    juice of half lemon
    dash hot sauce
    salt and pepper
    Instructions
    1. Saute finely diced onion and red pepper in a 1/2 tablespoon of butter.
    2. Bring 1 quart of water to a boil, along with 1 crab boil packet.
    3. Cook filets in boiling water for 2 minutes. Remove pot from heat and allow to sit for 5 minutes and then drain. Gently flake fish filets.
    4. Crush saltines in ziplock bag and mix next 6 ingredients together in a bowl.
    5. Gently combine sauteed onions and peppers with the saltine mixture. Then add in the flaked fish being careful not to over mix.
    6. Heat 1 tablespoon butter in skillet. Cook the cakes on medium heat until they have a little crust. Flip and cook other side.
    Remoulade Sauce
    Whisk together the mayo, ketchup, relish, mustard, lemon juice and hot sauce in a medium bowl until well combined. Season with salt and pepper.


    I substituted seasoned bread crumbs for crackers. Added a second egg. I used a whole medium onion. I used sriracha sauce. My meat I chose was bluegill. Used oil to fry in instead of butter.
    I used an ice cream scoop with the release trigger so they'd be uniform. Made 10 cakes.
    Absolutely delicious!!!
    Crunchy on the outside yet moist on the inside.

    These are similar to mine. I cook my fish the day before and chill in the fridge. Keeps the flesh from crumbling so much.
