Remove all cartilage from crab meat. In a bowl, mix bread crumbs, egg, mayonnaise and seasonings. Add crabmeat and mix gently but thoroughly. If mixture is too dry, add a little more mayonnaise. Shape into 6 cakes.

Cook cakes in frying pan, in just enough fat to prevent sticking, until browned, about 5 minutes on each side.
