Press a spoonful of chopped Fisher walnuts into the top and bottom of each patty.Place the crab cakes carefully in the heated pan, using your fingers or the back of a spoon to secure any pieces that may have fallen off. Cook on each side for 3-4 minutes, until a nice, golden crust has formed.(Note, without as much fat and filler, these crabcakes do have to have a little more care.
