Prepare the panko breadcrumbs by grinding them slightly to create a finer texture that will yield a nicely crisp crust.
Make a roasted garlic Mediterranean salt by combining Mediterranean salt with garlic and dried herbs, using only a small amount as the panko already provides a subtle flavor base.
To create the binding mousse, blend about half a pound of salmon (or other seafood such as shrimp or crab) with two egg yolks, two egg whites, chopped garlic, and herbs like dill, coriander, or parsley until smooth and creamy.
Gently fold the crab meat, such as jumbo lump from a can, into the mousse, being careful not to break up the crab pieces to keep them intact.
Add finely diced light green bell pepper and a small amount of parsley for color and flavor, mixing very gently to avoid damaging the crab chunks.
Use a mold approximately 3/4 inch thick or any circular shape to form the crab cakes.
First, coat the mold inside with the prepared panko breadcrumbs, then fill it with the crab mousse mixture and gently shape into cakes, smoothing the surface to hold their shape well.
Carefully coat the formed crab cakes on all sides with panko breadcrumbs, pressing lightly to adhere and shaping them into your desired round or flat forms.
Refrigerate the prepared crab cakes for 15-20 minutes to firm up and maintain their shape during cooking.
Heat garlic-infused olive oil to 185 °C (365 °F) and pan-fry the crab cakes on both sides until golden brown, avoiding excessive flipping to allow them to set properly.
