Ingredients

What you'll need

  • 1 lb crab cakes
  • a pinch lemon
  • 4 oz unsalted butter

  • 2 tbsp fresh parsley
  • 1 cup olive oil
  • 3 cloves kosher salt

Method

Step by step

  1. Bring the cold ingredients to room temperature so everything blends evenly.
  2. Mix the base until just combined -- overworking is what makes a bake tough.
  3. Get it into the oven promptly and resist the urge to open the door early.
  4. Let it cool and set properly; the patience is what makes it clean to slice.
