"This is from our local state paper and I am saving it here so I can take it on holidays with us. I also think these could be good as mini burgers and served with a few difference dipping sauces eg the mayo, sweet chilli and or soy or even just with some lemon wedges."

ingredients

400 g crabmeat (about 2-3 decent sized blueswimmer crabs)
1 cup breadcrumbs (day-old)
¹⁄₂ cup spring onion (finely chopped)
2 tablespoons parsley (flt-leaf chopped)
1 teaspoon garlic (minced)
salt (to taste)
fresh ground black pepper (to taste)
2 tablespoons mayonnaise
1 cup panko breadcrumbs (or other crumbs)
vegetable oil (for shallow-frying)

4 lettuce leaves
2 tomatoes (cut into slices)

directions

Combine the crab meat, day old crumbs, spring onions, parsley, garlic, seasoning and first lot of mayonnaise.
Mix together lightly and carefully shape into four patties - wet hands will help for this.
Then coast them with the panko crumbs (or other ones).
Heat a shallow layer of oil in a frypan and carefully brown the patties (to mixture is already cooked so you only need to brown and warm through) and be careful when turning.
For the Herb Mayo - simply combine the second lot of mayonnaise and the herbs.
mear the herb mayo over both sides of the split bread sections, leaving some in reserve.
Lay on the lettuce, tomato and crab burger, then finish with a blob of maylo on the top and top with other half of baquette slice and enjoy.

Beautiful! Great fresh flavours from the herbs and the baguette was a perfect constrast to the light fluffy texture of the burger.

With the demise of the forums and with no more interaction on site with what was a great community and it was a pleasure to get to know so many of you over the years and to have had the privilege of meeting some of you in person. For me now this is just another recipe site like to many on the net, it has lost its specialness, such a pity especially when Scripps changed the name from Recipezaar to Food.com and made this statement sorry cannot replicate here as considered invalid but they basically said yes the community was valuable hence .com was short for community but it was a pack of lies as they were not willing to put the money into that community and got rid of the forums which was the community so for .com has become .crap.
