30g breadcrumbs

1 Tbsp coriander, finely chopped

Oil for frying

3. In a frying pan heat a little oil and shallow fry the crab cakes on a medium heat for two or three minutes on each side until golden.

Hints and Tips

To save time crab cakes can be made the day before, covered with cling film and then placed in the refrigerator overnight. Canned crab is a good source of iron, which can stave off fatigue.
