How Not To Make Crabcakes
This was a bad attempt at making crabcakes. First off the crabcake included some lump crab, spices and I believe it was some eggs and matzoh meal. The issue was that the egg seemed to make the mixture a bit too liquidy. Second I had no clue whether to pan fry or bake so I did both. You can see the results of the pan frying - not so good. Then I had to bake the thing to cook the insides of it...not so good either. I decided to make grits because whenever you pair something with grits it always seems better. The sauce on top is chick-fil-a sauce which you can't tell because it looks orange on the green plate. Bad choice. Next time I'll stick to leaving it to the professionals. Also if you know of a good place to get crabcakes in Atlanta, let me know.
