Crab cakes are very popular in the Northeastern region of the United States. This recipe is a slightly more light version since it uses low fat mayonnaise.
To prepare the mayonnaise, cut the bell pepper in half and remove the seeds. Put in a food processor together with 1/3 cup light mayonnaise, a clove of garlic, a few drops of tabasco and a few drops of lemon juice. Season with salt and pepper and refrigerate.
To prepare the crab cakes: Mix 1/3 cup of mayonnaise, onion, red pepper, celery, lemon juice, egg white and crab meat in a bowl. Stir well and season with salt and pepper.
Form 6 flattened balls of the crab dough and pass through the ground bread until well covered.
Heat 1 tablespoon of butter in a skillet over medium-high heat.
Add 3 crab cakes to the pan and cook for 5 minutes on each side until golden brown. Repeat this step with the rest, using more butter for the pan.
Serve with lemon slices, with pepper mayonnaise, and a salad with vinegar and oil.
