1 lb. crab claw meat
2 eggs
2 tbsp. mayonnaise
1 tbsp. horseradish mustard
1/4 tsp. salt
1/8 tsp. pepper
Dash Tabasco
1 tbsp. chopped parsley
1/2 c. freshly rolled cracker crumbs
Oil for deep frying

Combine all above ingredients except cracker crumbs and oil, and mix lightly together. Form mixture into desired size cakes or croquettes. Do not pack firmly, but allow cakes to be light and spongy. Pat the crumbs onto the crab cakes. Fry in deep fat just until golden brown. Remove immediately and drain on absorbent paper. Serve hot with a smile!
