Crab cakes have always been a popular dish in coastal regions, especially in the United States. They are known for their delicate flavor and crispy exterior, making them a favorite among seafood lovers.

This recipe was inspired by my grandmother, who used to make the most amazing crab cakes for our family gatherings. Her secret was using fresh ingredients and just the right amount of seasoning to let the crab shine.

The addition of the remoulade sauce adds a tangy twist to the traditional crab cake, elevating it to a whole new level of deliciousness. This dish is perfect for impressing guests or enjoying a special meal at home.
