I have been using this Simple Crab Cake Recipe for awhile now, but haven’t got around of making a blog post on it. But this weekend I decide this recipe or meal to be one in my first meal prep post in the blog.

Last year, I bought a whole big bag of imitation crab in my one of the store here. I used a part of it for the sushi I made, I still got a whole amount. Good thing imitation crab are freeze able, so I just portion it in a zip-loc and use it whenever.

I think imitation crab is perfect for this recipe. This is such a simple recipe you can use using the ingredients you may have at home. You can add anything you want. In my case, I had carrots, egg, bell pepper, onions and green onions that are about to stale, so I used them all here. This is indeed simple.

Crab Cake Ingredients:
Imitation Crab and Cooked Crabs: Shred crab meat into strips and process or shopped into tiny pieces.
Anything you got in the fridge: carrots, red onion, green onion, bell pepper, spinach, cabbage, etc. This is a very versatile recipe, so you can use any veggies you have in he fridge that’s about to stale.
Egg and Cornstarch: This will serve as the binding power of this meal; so that the cake will not fall apart when you flip it while frying

What Sauce Can I use?
You can use any sauce you like: Ketchup, tartar sauce, mayonnaise? You name it.
