machine running, drop the garlic through the small feed
tube to chop. Add the peppers, green onion and parsley
and pulse to coarsely chop, about 10 to 12 pulses.

Put the oil into a large skillet placed over medium heat.
Cook chopped vegetables with salt and pepper until
soft, about 5 to 7 minutes. Remove and reserve in a
large mixing bowl.

Once vegetables have cooled slightly, add the crab,
eggs, breadcrumbs, mayonnaise, Worcestershire, Old

mixing bowl. mix thoroughly but carefully, so not to
break up the crab too much. Form mixture into 2-inch

TIP: Substitute cooked fish fillet for the crab to make
tasty fishcakes.
