I must begin with a disclaimer, I don't think I have ever actually had real crabcakes. My mother in law would balk at that, I am pretty sure it is one of her favorite foods if done well. But these cakes turned out pretty tasty in my book, so perhaps I should just call them Old Bay Chickpea cakes.
I also made the tartar sauce to go alongside them, though I cannot think of a more odd combination of ingredients than tartar sauce: pickles, lemon juice, hot sauce, greek yogurt. I paired them with a three bean salad of sorts, simply dressed in a little olive oil, red wine vinegar, and herbs. Needless to say, we had a lot of beans that night.
This is a great and simple recipe for a fast weeknight dinner loaded with flavor and protein. I also came across a few recipes adding shredded zucchini to the cakes, a unique way to use up all that summer squash!
