Instructions

Step 1

Microwave potatoes as directed on package; place in large bowl. (Do not mash.) Cool slightly.

Step 2

Meanwhile, heat 1 Tbsp. oil in large skillet on medium heat. Add yellow onions, peppers and celery; cook 8 to 10 min. or until tender and lightly browned, stirring frequently. Add Worcestershire sauce and seafood seasoning; cook and stir 1 min. Remove from heat.

Step 3

Add mayo, parsley, mustard, garlic powder and 1 egg to potatoes; mash until potato mixture is smooth and well blended. Add cooked onion mixture, crabmeat and green onions; mix well. Refrigerate 1 hour.

Step 4

Shape crabmeat mixture into 20 patties. Place flour and bread crumbs in separate shallow bowls. Whisk remaining eggs in third shallow bowl until blended. Dip crab patties, 1 at a time, in flour, then eggs, then bread crumbs, turning to evenly coat both sides of each patty with each ingredient. Place on waxed paper-covered baking sheet.

Step 5

Melt 1-1/2 Tbsp. butter with 1 Tbsp. of the remaining oil in large skillet on medium heat. Add 5 crab patties; cook 3 min. on each side or until firm and golden brown on both sides. Drain on paper towels. Repeat with remaining butter, oil and crab patties.
