Method

Mix the mustard, egg and mayonnaise. Gently fold in the crab. Brush platter lightly with olive oil and carefully form your crabcakes so as not to break them into lumps. Bake in an oven at 230°C for 8 – 10 minutes, then allow to rest at least 5 minutes before lifting off the platter with a spatula.

Note: The secret of this dish is in the quality of the crabmeat!
