Crab Cakes

1 pound cooked crab meat
2 eggs
4 tbsp. melted butter
1/2 tsp. salt
1/8 tsp. black pepper
pinch of cayenne pepper
Fine bread crumbs

Mix crab meat, butter, seasonings and enough of the egg to mold into small flat cakes. Beat a little water into the remaining egg and wet the cakes with this mixture, then roll them in the fine bread crumbs. Saute the crab cakes in a slightly greased frying pan until browned and done. Serves 4.
