A recipe for you to try......

Port Isaac Crab Cakes serves 4

Very simple and very crabby, these make a great starter for supper served with kitchen garden leaves or you could have them for lunch or if you make them smaller a canapé.

500g mixed white Crab

Grated zest of 1 lemon

1 tbsp chopped parsley

2 tbsp Creme Fraiche

4 tbsp plain flour

1 egg lightly beaten

50 g white breadcrumbs

25g butter & 4 tbsp sunflower oil

Cornish sea salt

To serve

Lemon Aioli

Kitchen garden leaves

Put the crabmeat in a bowl with lemon zest, parsley, salt and pepper. Mix together adding a little crème fraiche to bind together. Divide into 8 round shapes, a fat cake about 2cm thick. Chill in the fridge for 1 hour.

Put the flour on a plate and season well. Pour the egg into a shallow dish and then scatter the breadcrumbs on another plate.  Take a chilled crab cake and dip into the flour, coating it on both sides, then dip into the egg and finally the breadcrumbs. Set aside and repeat with the rest of the crab cakes.

Heat the butter and oil in a large frying pan. When the butter starts to sizzle add the crab cakes to the pan and fry over a medium heat for 3-4 minutes, until crisp and golden brown underneath.  Turn them over and cook for another 2-3 minutes adjusting the heat so that they are not colouring too quickly.

Serve immediately, with lemon aioli, lemon wedges and kitchen garden leaves.
