Creamy Bbq Shrimp Cakes Recipes

EASY SHRIMP CAKES RECIPE

Steps:

• 1. Place the shrimp in the bowl of a food processor. Pulse until coarsely chopped - do not over process. 2. Transfer the shrimp to a large bowl. Add chopped onion, crushed garlic cloves, breadcrumbs, parsley, eggs and spices. Mix until well combined. 3. Form the mixture into patties. 4. In a large pan heat olive oil. Add the shrimp patties and cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side or until golden brown. Transfer to a paper towel to drain. 5. For the dipping sauce: in a medium bowl, mix all the ingredients until combined and smooth.

SHRIMP CAKES WITH CHILI-LIME CREAM SAUCE

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.

SHRIMP AND CRAB CAKES

Steps:

• Roughly chop the raw shrimp and place in a large bowl.
• In a small bowl, whip the egg whites with a fork until frothy. Stir in the cream, salt, pepper, and cumin seeds. Combine with chopped shrimp. Mix well with the jicama, green onion, cilantro, ginger, and kaffir lime leaves.
• Press any excess moisture out of the crab meat in a colander. Combine the crab with the shrimp mixture.
• Pour the panko into a wide, shallow dish. Scoop out a heaping tablespoon of the shrimp and crab mixture and drop it into the panko. Using your hands, shape the shrimp and crab mixture into round cakes and evenly coat with the panko. Repeat with the remaining mixture and place the crab cakes on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Refrigerate for 30 minutes until firm.
• Heat a deep fryer to 350 degrees F or heat 3/4-inch of vegetable oil in a skillet over medium heat, just until the surface of the oil begins to gently ripple. Fry the crab cakes, a few at a time, until crispy and golden, about 2 minutes per side. Remove from the hot oil with a slotted spoon or spider and place on absorbent paper to absorb any excess oil.
• Serve with Ginger-Lime Dipping Sauce on the side.
• Put sugar, water, ginger, and salt in a heavy-bottomed saucepan. Bring to a boil, then lower heat and reduce to a syrupy consistency (about 15 minutes). Strain through a fine sieve, discard ginger, reserve liquid, and let cool.
• In a small food processor, pulse cilantro, lime juice, chile, and green onion (about 30 seconds). Add ginger syrup and pulse until combined.
• Serve at room temperature.

GRILLED SHRIMP RICE CAKES

Steps:

• In a food processor pulse shrimp with green onions, ginger, sesame oil, garlic, salt and pepper until finely chopped. Transfer mixture to a large bowl.
• Gently mix in rice and egg until well combined. Lightly pack some of the mixture into a 1/4 cup measuring cup; turn out and smooth edges to form patties.
• Repeat with remaining mixture.
• In a shallow dish, place panko crumbs. Turn patties in crumbs to lightly coat, shaking off excess.
• Shrimp can be prepared up to this point, layered in an airtight container between sheets of waxed paper and reserved in the refrigerator for up to 1 day or frozen for up to 1 month.
• Preheat grill to medium-high after greasing well. Brush patties lightly with canola oil. Grill patties for 3 minutes per side or until golden and opaque throughout.
• Stir plum sauce with chili sauce and lime juice. Serve shrimp cakes with chili-plum sauce on the side for dippings.
• NOTE: Panko is a Japanese-style breadcrumb and provides a light, crispy coating for the shrimp cakes.
