    3 tablespoons minced scallions
    2 teaspoons minced fresh ginger
    1 tablespoon finely chopped cilantro leaves
    1 tablespoon dijon mustard
    2 tablespoons oriental sesame oil

    Heat a film of the peanut oil in a large nonstick skillet. Sauté the crab cakes over medium-low heat until they are lightly browned on both sides. Serve with the mayonnaise mixture on the side and sprigs of cilantro for garnish.
    For the sauce:
    Mix the mayonnaise with the remaining lime juice, soy sauce, sesame oil and scallions and set aside.
