Preparation

  • For the crab cakes: In a large sauté pan sauté sweet potatoes and onion over medium heat in butter. Remove pan from heat; let cool.

  • In a large bowl combine mayonnaise, mustard, lemon juice, Worcestershire, egg, and seafood seasoning. Add bread cubes sweet potatoes and onion. Gently fold in crabmeat, taking care to not break up crabmeat pieces.

  • Meanwhile, for the hash: In a large pot of boiling salted water cook sweet potatoes until slightly softened, about 3 to 4 minutes. Drain. Rinse under cold water to cool; drain well. Transfer to a baking sheet covered in paper towels to dry.

  • Melt 1 tablespoon of the butter in a large heavy nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion; sauté until golden brown, about 8 minutes. Add potatoes; reduce heat to medium. Season with salt, pepper, and jerk seasoning. Spread mixture into an even layer covering the bottom of the pan; cook until golden brown and crispy, about 15 minutes.

  • Meanwhile, preheat oven to 400 ̊F. In a large shallow frying pan heat oil over medium-high heat. Add crab cakes; cook until well-browned on both sides. Transfer to oven; bake until cooked through (165 ˚F). Serve crab cakes hot with hash.
