Crabe cake
Pour the milk over half the Panko and leave on the counter for five minutes.
After the five minutes, in a bowl, combine all the ingredients and mix gently so as not to crumble the crab too much.
Season with pepper, but be careful with salt, as the crab is often already quite salty.

Finish and cook
Spread the Panko on a plate, then coat the patties in the breadcrumbs.
In a hot frying pan with sufficient oil, place your breaded patties, making sure they are nicely browned on both sides.
Immediately place them on absorbent paper, adding oil if necessary as they cook.
