Key West Shrimp Cakes With Cream Sauce Recipes

Steps:

• Add the butter, raw scallops and shrimp to a food processor with parsley, bread crumbs, garlic powder, and lemon zest, and pulse to chop coarsely. Transfer to a mixing bowl and add mango, mayonnaise and Parmesan. (If necessary, add more mayonnaise to bind patties.) Season, to taste, with salt and pepper. Form into 2-inch patties.
• Heat the oil in a saute pan over medium heat and sear both sides of the seafood cakes, until golden brown. Leave each side undisturbed for about 2 minutes to allow the surface of the patty to set up and therefore avoid breakage.
• Serve with a dipping sauce made of the creme fraiche and sour cream which has been whisked together.

Steps:

• Fill a medium-sized pot with water and bring to a boil. Cut 2 whole limes in half, squeeze juice into pot of water, and throw in the rinds. Cook shrimp in water for 3 to 4 minutes. Rinse and peel. Place peppers, onions and parsley in the bowl of food processor and pulse 3 or 4 times for a very coarse chop. Add shrimp, lime juice, eggs, mustard, bread, crumbs, cream, salt and pepper to food processor bowl and pulse 3 or 4 times until ingredients are just mixed and shrimp are very coarsely chopped. Form the mixture into 10 patties (about 1/4 cup of mixture for each patty). Fry in 1 inch of olive oil until golden on both sides. Place on a platter and keep warm in a low temperature oven. Make the Cream Sauce: Pour tequila in a deep saucepan. Place over medium heat and warm; do not boil. Remove pan from heat and place on cold burner. Carefully, with a long lighter (like the ones used to light grills), light the tequila and let it burn out. Place pan back on heat and pour in the cream. Let cream boil until reduced by half. Stir with a whisk to keep it from burning. When reduced, remove fan from heat and whisk in the 4 tablespoons of butter one at a time. Serve immediately with Shrimp Cakes
