FISH AND LOBSTER CAKES
"When I ran Barefoot Contessa, my specialty-food store in East Hampton, NY, we sold thousands and thousands of crab cakes every summer. They were not only delicious, but they were also perfect for entertaining because you could simply reheat them before dinner and serve them with our creamy, vinegary remoulade. I still make them at home: I cook them early in the day so I can be out of the kitchen by the time my guests arrive. Recently, I revisited my old recipe and decided to update it with lobster, flaky codfish, lemon zest and crunchy panko crumbs. I was glad I did! The fish cakes turned out to be a wonderful twist on traditional crab cakes. To make them ahead, I prepare the Fish and Lobster Cakes, place them on a sheet pan, wrap them well and refrigerate for a few hours. Before we eat, I just put them in a 350 degrees F oven for 15 minutes. Everyone thinks I whipped up dinner right before they arrived!" says Ina.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F.
- Heat 3 tablespoons of the butter in a large (12-inch) saute pan over medium-high heat. Add the onion, celery and bell pepper and cook over medium heat for 8 to 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until tender. Place the fish on top of the vegetables and add the cream, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper. Bring to a boil, lower the heat, cover and simmer for 6 to 12 minutes (depending on the thickness of the cod), until the fish is just cooked. Set aside in the pan for 10 minutes, then flake the fish into large pieces with a fork.
- Put 2 cups of the panko in a large bowl. Add the cod mixture, including the cooking liquid, the dill, mayonnaise, mustard, lemon zest, eggs, lobster, 2 teaspoons salt and 1 teaspoon black pepper and mix gently.
- Using a 2 1/4-inch ice cream scoop as a measure, shape the mixture into 14 (3-inch) fish cakes. Place the remaining 2 cups of panko on a plate and coat the cakes all over, patting the coating to adhere. Wipe the saute pan clean with a paper towel and heat 2 tablespoons of the butter and 2 tablespoons of oil in the pan over medium heat. Place 5 cakes in the pan and cook for 5 minutes on each side, until nicely browned on both sides. Transfer the cakes to a sheet pan and keep them warm in the oven for up to 15 minutes. Repeat, adding more butter and oil, until the entire mixture is cooked. Serve hot with the remoulade sauce.
- Remoulade Sauce: Place the mayonnaise, cornichons, mustard, vinegar, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt and 3/4 teaspoon pepper in the bowl of a food processor fitted with the steel blade. Pulse a few times until the cornichons are finely chopped (not pureed). Transfer to a sealed container and refrigerate for up to 5 days.

- Form into 2 1/2-ounce cakes. Saute on both sides until golden brown.
RED LOBSTER MARYLAND CRAB CAKES
From the Red Lobster restaurant website. These dense yet flaky, firm yet delicate, Maryland crab cakes are a seaside staple. I made these this evening and even my DH who doesn't care for seafood said it was a keeper recipe. I made them just as the recipe states but next time I might try a little more Old Bay Seasoning or pepper (or perhaps a dash of cayenne or red pepper flakes) to bring some more flavor to these wonderful crab cakes. Serve them a' la carte, in a sandwich or beside a salad. We used Sweet Chili Sauce drizzled on the plate for another layer of flavor -- the Asian type SWEET-chili sauce, not the tomato-based kind you find with ketchup or the hot type of Asian chili sauce -- which complemented these very well and came straight out of the bottle so no extra work. Some advice on breadcrumbs: I really recommend Panko breadcrumbs. They give these cakes a nice crunchy outside even though very few crumbs are used for breading. Luckily most major grocery stores now carry this product in the Asian product aisle. If you're lucky enough to have an Asian grocery store in your area go there not only to save money but also to take advantage of authentic, flaky, white breadcrumbs that can be use in numerous recipes! Please do NOT purchase Progresso Seasoned Panko breadcrumbs for this recipe. If Panko crumbs are not available to you, use plain (non-seasoned) breadcrumbs for this recipe.

Steps:
- In a large stainless-steel bowl, combine all ingredients except crab meat and bread crumbs. Coat a spoon or dip a clean finger to taste and adjust seasoning if needed.
- Using gloved hands, gently mix in crab meat, then add bread crumbs.
- Spread a thin layer of plain bread crumbs on your work surface.
- Form crab mixture into equal balls, approximately two inches in diameter. Place on crumbs.
- Gently flatten the ball of crab mixture and round the edges to seal and firm up the cakes. They should be about one-half inch thick and three inches round. Sprinkle any crumbs remaining on your work surface over the tops of the cakes, pressing them gently to stick. (You can make your cakes smaller for appetizer size but if you go thinner the cooking time may need to be adjusted).
- Refrigerate until ready to cook.
- In a sauté pan, melt 2 tablespoons of oil until hot over medium to medium-high. Gently slide in crab cakes 2 at a time (if your temperature is at medium-high reduce to medium).
- Brown on one side approximately 1-1/2 to 3 minutes. Turn and brown slightly on the other side. Turn down heat to medium-low and cook crab cakes another 5-8 minutes until golden brown.
- Remove cakes to a double thickness of paper towel to remove any excess oil, then serve.
- Note: While you may be tempted to increase the amount of bread crumbs used, you'll receive the best sauté results with the thin layer as described above.
- Tip: If you'll be serving them as a sandwich a bit of melted cheese and lettuce and/or tomato go well.
- Storing: These are best served fresh but you can refrigerate up to 2-3 days or freeze in a zip-lock freezer bag up to a month. Reheat in the oven at a medium temperature, or in a fry pan over medium heat (microwaving will heat it up faster but you'll forfeit the the crunch factor for speed).
