Ingredients

  • 1 lb crab meat (preferably lump crab meat)
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise
  • 1/4 cup Dijon mustard
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 tablespoon Old Bay seasoning
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 2 teaspoons hot sauce (optional)
  • 1/4 cup green onions, finely chopped
  • 1/4 cup parsley, finely chopped
  • 1 egg, beaten (for binding)
  • 1/2 cup breadcrumbs (preferably panko)
  • 12 egg roll wrappers
  • Oil for frying

Instructions

  • In a large bowl, combine the crab meat, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, Old Bay seasoning, lemon juice, hot sauce (if using), green onions, and parsley. Gently mix to combine, being careful not to break up the crab meat too much.
  • Add in the beaten egg and breadcrumbs to the crab mixture and stir gently to combine. This will help hold the mixture together when rolled.
  • Lay one egg roll wrapper flat on a clean surface. Place about 2-3 tablespoons of the crab mixture in the center of the wrapper.
  • Fold in the sides of the wrapper and roll tightly, making sure the filling is securely enclosed. Use a little water to seal the edges of the wrapper.
  • Heat oil in a deep frying pan or a pot over medium-high heat. The oil should be hot but not smoking (about 350°F). Carefully add the egg rolls, a few at a time, into the hot oil. Fry for about 3-4 minutes, turning occasionally until golden brown and crispy.
  • Remove the egg rolls from the oil and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
  • Serve the crab cake egg rolls hot with your favorite dipping sauce (e.g., cocktail sauce, tartar sauce, or a spicy aioli).

Notes

  • You can bake these egg rolls instead of frying them. Brush them with a bit of oil and bake at 375°F for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden and crispy.
  • If you want extra flavor, you can add a small amount of finely chopped bell peppers or celery to the crab mixture.
  • Adjust the level of hot sauce based on how spicy you like your crab cakes.
