Crab Cakes with Spicy Remoulade and Citrus Frisée Salad Recipe courtesy of Jeff Mauro Level: Intermediate Total: 1 hr 10 min (includes chilling time) Active: 35 min Yield: 4 servings Ingredients Crab Cakes: 1/2 cup mayonnaise 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard 1 tablespoon seafood seasoning, such as Old Bay 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce 2 teaspoons kosher salt 1/2 teaspoon freshly cracked black pepper 15 butter crackers, crushed to fine crumbs 1 large egg 2 cups lump crabmeat 3 tablespoons vegetable oil Remoulade: 1 cup mayonnaise 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard 2 tablespoons capers, drained and roughly chopped 1 1/2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley 1 1/2 teaspoons sweet paprika 1 teaspoon hot sauce 1 clove garlic, grated Zest and juice of 1/2 lemon Kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper Citrus Frisée Salad with Orange Vinaigrette: 2 navel oranges 2 teaspoons stone-ground mustard 2 tablespoons white wine vinegar 3/4 teaspoon kosher salt 3/4 teaspoon freshly cracked black pepper 1/2 cup olive oil 1 head frisée lettuce, trimmed 1/4 cup pine nuts, lightly toasted Directions For the crab cakes: Mix together the mayonnaise, mustard, seafood seasoning, Worcestershire sauce, salt, pepper, cracker crumbs and egg in a large bowl until combined. Gently fold in the crab until combined. Form into 4 patties and place on a sheet tray. Chill in the fridge for 30 minutes before cooking. Heat the vegetable oil in a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Gently place the crab cakes in the skillet. Cook for 4 to 5 minutes a side or until golden brown. Place on a paper towel-lined sheet tray to drain. Meanwhile, for the remoulade: Combine the mayonnaise, mustard, capers, parsley, paprika, hot sauce, garlic and lemon zest and juice in a small bowl and mix to combine. Let it chill out in the fridge for 30 minutes. Season to taste. For the citrus frisée salad with orange vinaigrette: Cut the orange into supremes (cutting off the peel with a sharp knife and then cutting the exposed segments free from the membranes) and set aside. Squeeze the juice out of the pith left from each orange into a small bowl, then discard the pith. Add the mustard, vinegar, salt and pepper to the bowl, then stream in the olive oil while whisking to emulsify and combine. Tear the frisée leaves into pieces. Toss the leaves with the vinaigrette right before serving. Garnish with the pine nuts and reserved orange segments. Serve each crab cake with a spoonful of the remoulade alongside the salad.
