Cooking

Crab meat finely chop. In a blender, BUT that's to chop, but not into a paste! Add finely chopped: green onions, celery, Basil, zest and juice of 1 lemon, egg and sour cream. In the original preparing from the meat of fresh crab, but I used imitation crab meat.

All mix gently, season with salt and pepper to taste. Add the nutmeg. In the end, add the breadcrumbs. But do not overdo it with the breadcrumbs below the main flavor remained sweet taste of crab, not bread.

The resulting mixture to form patties. They are larger than usual. Blind ball the size of an orange and slightly flatten the top. Roll in breadcrumbs. Remove the cutlets in the fridge at least 20 minutes and better for a couple of hours. The crackers during this time will absorb all the moisture.

10 minutes before serving in a frying pan, heat olive oil and fry patties over medium heat for about 4 minutes on each side until Golden brown.

Serve hot on lettuce leaves. Add some lemon juice.
