Mix or grind the crappie fillets, onion, celery and potatoes together. Now add the salt, pepper and egg together. Form into patties. Heat butter and canola oil in a skillet on medium-high and roll the patties in the crushed cracker crumbs (say that 5 times fast). Fry the patties until they are golden brown on each side. To make the sauce, heat the garlic and butter in a saucepan on medium. Whisk in the flour until it forms a smooth paste. Gradually stir in the milk and bring to a boil. Cook for two minutes while whisking the sauce. Remove from heat; add lemon juice and season with salt and pepper. Serve garlic-butter sauce with crappie patties.
