How to make Miniature Crab Cakes with Mustard Mayonnaise

In a small non-stick skillet sauté pepper in oil over moderately high heat, stirring, 2 minutes, or until softened and golden. In a bowl whisk together mayonnaise, yolk, mustard, lemon juice, tarragon, and pepper and stir in crab and salt and pepper to taste gently but thoroughly. Chill crab mixture, covered, at least 1 hour and up to 1 day.

Preriscalda il forno a 177°C.

In a large shallow baking pan spread lt;I>panko in even layer. Toast panko, stirring occasionally, until golden, about 10 minutes, and cool.(Panko may be toasted 1 week ahead and kept in an airtight container at room temperature.)

Form rounded teaspoons of crab mixture into slightly flattened 1-inch rounds and gently coat with panko, transferring to a shallow baking pan. Chill crab cakes, loosely covered with wax paper, at least 2 hours and up to 4.

In a small bowl whisk together mayonnaise, mustard, and lemon juice. (Mayonnaise may be made 3 days ahead and chilled, covered.)

Preheat oven to 232°C.

Drizzle a scant 1/4 teaspoons butter on each crab cake and bake in middle of oven until crisp and cooked through, about 15 minutes.

Serve crab cakes with mustard mayonnaise.
