Chinese Shrimp Cakes Recipes

Steps:

• Coarsely chop shrimp in processor. Add egg, green onion, lemon juice, mustard, cilantro, hot pepper sauce, salt, and pepper. Blend in using on/off turns. Add 1 cup panko and blend in using on/off turns. Form mixture into twelve 3-inch-diameter cakes. Roll cakes in remaining 1 cup panko; transfer to waxed-paper-lined baking sheet. Refrigerate 10 minutes. (Can be made up to 4 hours ahead. Cover and refrigerate.)
• Heat 2 tablespoons peanut oil in heavy large skillet over medium-high heat. Working in batches, fry cakes until cooked through and golden brown on both sides, adding more oil to skillet as needed, about 6 minutes.
• Spoon 3 tablespoons Chili-Lime Cream Sauce onto each of 6 plates. Place 2 shrimp cakes on each and serve immediately.

Steps:

• Mix shrimp with ginger, egg, salt, sherry and cornstarch (1Tblsp.). Shape into small flat cakes. Deep fry cakes. Drain and place in wok.
• Add stock, bring to a boil, and simmer for 5 minutes. Remove cakes from stock and place on a bed of spinach. Add cornstarch mixture to boiling stock. Allow mixture to thicken and pour over shrimp cakes.

Steps:

• Place shrimp, garlic, cilantro, chili paste, brown sugar, salt, fish sauce, turmeric, and cayenne pepper into the bowl of a food processor. Pulse on and off until mixture begins to break down. Scrape down the sides. Continue processing until mixture is very smooth but not pureed and moves around the bowl as a mass. Transfer to a bowl. Cover with plastic wrap; press wrap against the surface of the shrimp paste. Refrigerate until mixture is chilled, 1 to 2 hours.
• Place panko crumbs on a plate. Scoop out equal size portions of shrimp and roll them around on the crumbs to coat. Shape into thin patties. Do this in batches.
• Heat oil in skillet over medium-high heat. When oil is hot, cook cakes in batches. Fry until golden brown and cakes spring back to the touch, about 2 minutes per side. Drain on paper towels.

Steps:

• Blend first 4 ingredients in medium bowl. Mix in crabmeat, shrimp and 1/2 cup breadcrumbs. Season with pepper. Place remaining 1 cup breadcrumbs on plate. Drop 1/4 of crab mixture into breadcrumbs; turn to coat. Shape into 2 1/2-inch-diameter cake. Repeat coating and shaping with remaining crab mixture and crumbs, forming total of 4 cakes.
• Heat oil in heavy medium skillet over medium heat. Add cakes and sauté until crisp, about 5 minutes per side.

Steps:

• Whip the egg white until stiff.
• Cut the imitation crab meat into little strips lengthwise than.
• Use the back of your knife to"flatten" the shrimp then mince.
• Mix all the ingredients for the panckae until they bind well (you can adjust the consistency with some cornstarch or more egg whites).
• Heat your wok.
• Spray with cooking spray and some peanut oil in the wok (make sure you use enough oil or the pancake won't be crispy! I use about 2 tbsp).
• In the med-high temp wok, put all the pancake mixture into the wok and use the back of a big spoon, flatten the mixture on the wok.
• When you can start to smell the yummy pancake cake, flip and cook the other side until done (I never learn how to just "toss" the pancake, so I slide it on another plate and then flip it).
• Cut the pancake into finger-food size.
• Garnish with more cilantro.
• Mix the sauce and serve!
