Grilled Crab Cakes with Sweetcorn Salsa and Gochujang Mayonnaise

20 Minutes | easy | Serves 2

These crab cakes combine the intense flavour of brown crab meat with the beautiful meaty texture of the white claw meat. They could easily be spiced, too. Try adding a little Cajun spice mix, or more chilli.
