Directions
1. In a large pot of boiling water, cook the potatoes until tender. When cool enough to handle, peel them and grate them through the large holes of a hand-held grater.
2. Preheat the broiler. Lightly oil a broiler rack.
3. In a large mixing bowl, combine the potatoes, crabmeat, onion, parsley, dill, sherry, yogurt, egg whites, salt, pepper, mace, and cayenne, and mix gently to combine.
4. Form the mixture into 12 patties about 1/2 inch thick. Dredge each patty in the bread crumbs to coat it completely and place on the prepared broiler rack.
5. In a small saucepan, warm the oil with the butter over low heat until the butter is melted. Drizzle half of this mixture over the tops of the patties and broil until they turn a crusty golden brown, 3 to 5 minutes. Turn the patties over, drizzle the remaining butter mixture over them, and broil for 3 to 5 minutes. Serve hot with the lemon wedges.
