Cajun Crab Cakes + Remoulade Sauce
I really love a good crab cake, and they’re surprisingly so easy to make at home! These really do taste restaurant quality, and the Cajun flavor is to die for. I made my own seasoning blend, but you can easily use Tony’s instead.
These crab cakes are gluten and grain free, making them a lot healthier than their restaurant counterpart. I used an avocado based mayonnaise too vs. one filled with inflammatory oils like soybean.
Here’s how you make it.
Ingredients:
For the crab cakes
16 oz lump crab
1 1/2 tbsp cassava flour
4 tbsp mayonnaise
2 tbsp Cajun seasoning
1 tbsp Dijon mustard
1/4 cup green onion thinly sliced
1/2 jalapeño diced
1/4 cup almond flour
2-3 tbsp olive oil
For the remoulade
1 cup mayonnaise
1 tbsp Worcestershire
1 tbsp lemon
1 tbsp Dijon mustard
1 tbsp horseradish
1 clove garlic minced
1/2 tsp Cajun seasoning
Dash of cayenne
Dash of paprika
Parsley
Instructions:
In a box mix the crab, cassava, Cajun seasoning, green onion, jalapeño, mayo, salt and pepper. Use a 1/2 cup measuring spoon and create cakes - about six. Place in the fridge for 1 hour.
Mix all ingredients for sauce in a bowl and refrigerate until ready to serve.
Put the almond flour on a plate and slightly dust each side of the cakes in it. Heat the oil on medium in a pan and fry for 3-4 minutes each side - until golden brown. Enjoy!
