Potato-crab cutlets
Description
We've made potato-crab patties several times over the past few months. We've tried using real crab meat (which is more expensive) as well as regular imitation crab sticks—both versions turn out delicious (though the real crab is, of course, better). The kids absolutely love these patties, and we end up having a few ourselves (they're actually an excellent snack with beer!). If you enjoy the taste of potato casseroles and crab meat, you'll definitely like these potato-crab patties.
