Say hello to your new go-to recipe for crab cakes. With minimal ingredients and maximum flavor, you'll be wondering why you waited so long to try them.

1 can (6 ounce size) crab
2 eggs, lightly beaten
2 tablespoons mayonnaise
2 tablespoons prepared mustard
2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
1/2 cup soft bread crumbs
2 tablespoons Old Bay seasoning
1/4 cup milk
salt
black pepper
seasoned salt
vegetable or corn oil
Combine the crab, eggs, mayonnaise, mustard, bread crumbs, Old Bay seasoning, and milk. Mix gently. Form the crab mixture into small cakes. Season the crab cakes with salt, pepper, and seasoned salt as desired.
Heat a thin layer of oil in a large skillet over medium heat. When hot, add the crab cakes and cook on each side until lightly browned and heated through, about 3-4 minutes per side.
Serve the crab cakes hot with any desired condiments.
