THAI SHRIMP CAKES

Steps:

• Remove shells, veins, and tail of shrimp, add to a food processor.
• Add all other ingredients to the food processor and mix until well blended.
• Remove the mixture to a bowl, have a plate ready to place the patties on. Roll the mixture into golf ball-sized patties.
• Heat a skillet on medium heat, add 2 Tbsp of oil, cook the shrimp cakes, 6 or so pieces at a time, until light golden brown (2-3 mins). Flip them over and cook for 2 minutes more and place them on a plate lined with a paper towel to let cool. Finish cooking the rest of the patties.

CRISPY SHRIMP CAKES WITH SEAWEED SALAD

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400˚ F. Line a baking sheet with foil. Put half the shrimp in a food processor and process until a thick paste forms. Add the remaining shrimp, 1/2 cup panko, the egg, sriracha mayonnaise, 1 tablespoon sesame oil, the scallion, ginger and a pinch each of salt and pepper. Process until well mixed but chunky. Drop into 8 mounds on the baking sheet and shape with damp hands into 8 patties, about 3 inches in diameter and 1/2 inch thick. Freeze until firmed up slightly, about 5 minutes.
• Put the remaining 1/2 cup panko in a shallow dish. Heat the vegetable oil in a large ovenproof nonstick skillet over medium heat. Coat the shrimp patties in the panko on both sides and cook until golden, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer the skillet to the oven and cook until the patties are cooked through, 5 to 7 more minutes.
• Meanwhile, toss the greens and seaweed salad in a large bowl with the vinegar and remaining 1 teaspoon sesame oil; season with salt and pepper. Serve the shrimp cakes with the salad, pickled ginger and sriracha mayonnaise.

THAI SHRIMP CAKE

Steps:

• Prepare the Sweet Cilantro Sauce by whisking all the ingredients together in a small bowl and then set aside.
• Spread the shrimp on a plate and chill the shrimp in the freezer for 15 minutes(this can ensures the springy texture of the shrimp cakes). Meanwhile get all your other ingredients ready. Combine the chilled shrimp, red curry paste, egg, fish sauce, sugar and coconut milk in a food processor or blender. Process until smooth, about 30 seconds. Transfer the mixture to a mixing bowl. Mix in the green beans and basil.
• Because different brands of curry pastes have differing amounts of salt you'll want to make a sample shrimp cake first by saute 1 tablespoon of the mixture in a skillet(frying pan). Taste, and if necessary, adjust the seasoning with fish sauce and salt.
• Heat a large skillet over medium heat. First use 1 tablespoon of the oil to coat the skillet, use a measuring spoon to drop 1 tablespoon of the paste into the skillet. With a damp finger, flatten the paste slightly to about 1/2" thick. Make about 10 of these shrimp patties in the skillet.Cook the cakes until they are golden brown on each side and cooked through, about 2 minutes per side. Wipe out the skillet with a paper towel, make more patties from the remaining paste and cook the same way. Serve with a side bowl of the Sweet Chili Sauce.
