Chilli Crab Cakes

Chilli Crab Cakes
These crab cakes are great on their own or you may want to add a chilli sauce. In that case I would recommend my home made version, more flavours that the bottled kind and less sweet.

Serve as part of a dinner with:
Starter – Fresh and Fruity Vegetable Starter
Main course – Together with Rosemary Courgette Spaghetti and Home made Chilli Sauce
Dessert – Sweet and Sour Sauce with Strawberries and Vanilla Bean Ice Cream

Serves 4

2 eggs, whisked
75 ml Quinoa flakes
1 tbsp psyllium husk

500 g crabmeat
Fresh coriander, chopped
½ stalk of lemongrass, chopped
½ medium sized red onion, chopped
½ lime, zest
1 red chilli fruit, chopped
1 tbsp fish sauce
1 tsp sesame oil

Chilli flakes, salt and pepper
Rapeseed or olive oil to fry

  1. Combine eggs, quinoa and psyllium husk, set aside for 10 minutes.
  2. Combine remaining ingredients in a bowl and mix well. Season with salt and pepper.
  3. Add the egg mixture to the crab mixture and form small patties/crab cakes.
  4. Heat some oil in a pan and fry the cakes until golden on both sides turning one time only.

Serve on top of spinach leaves with a sprinkle of chilli flakes on top
