These ball shaped crab cakes are quite thick in their frozen format. That means it takes some time to cook the cakes all the way through to the center – and upto the safe temperature of 165F and above.
All this means the crab cakes do develop some char and crisp on the outside. I find this quite enjoyable – certainly not burnt – but you may have your own preferences. The interior is of course quite soft and juicy, despite the long cooking time.
Here are the crab cakes served with a Middle Eastern inspired selection of items, Aleppo-pepper spiced chickpeas, cucumber-tomato-parsely salad with garlic, air fried pita chips, hummus and lemon aioli.
