CRISPY SHRIMP CAKES WITH CHILE-LIME MAYO
Savory fried shrimp cakes are popular in coastal areas in many parts of the world, with each region adding its own vibrant flavors to the mix. Here, the golden-edged patties are shot through with fresh basil and cilantro for brightness, chiles for heat and a little fish sauce (an ingredient often found in Southeast Asian recipes) for depth. Then, as an untraditional binder, crushed-up rice cakes are mixed in with the shrimp for an ethereal, especially crisp result. But panko or cracker crumbs make acceptable substitutes if rice cakes aren't available.

Steps:
- In the bowl of the food processor (or you can use a blender), add the rice cakes and pulse until you get 1 1/4 cups rice cake crumbs. Return 1/4 cup crumbs to the food processor, reserving the remaining 1 cup for coating the cakes.
- Add shrimp, shallot, 4 tablespoons each of the cilantro and basil, and 2 tablespoons jalapeño to the crumbs. Add 2 teaspoons fish sauce, and a pinch each salt and pepper. Pulse until the mixture forms a coarse, chunky paste. (Be careful not to overprocess; if using a blender, scrape down the sides frequently.) Transfer to a bowl, cover and refrigerate while you make the sauce (at least 15 minutes and up to 24 hours).
- In a small bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, remaining cilantro, basil, jalapeño and fish sauce. Zest the lime into the bowl, then cut the naked lime into wedges and squeeze in some juice. Salt to taste. Reserve extra lime wedges for serving.
- Spread remaining 1 cup rice cake crumbs out onto a plate or sheet pan. With wet hands to keep shrimp paste from sticking, form 2 tablespoons of shrimp mixture into a 1/2-inch-thick patty and put it on top of the crumbs. Repeat with remaining shrimp mixture, re-wetting your hands as necessary. Turn the patties over in the crumbs to coat both sides.
- Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high. Fry patties in batches until golden brown, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Serve shrimp cakes topped with more basil leaves, with chile-lime sauce for dunking and lime wedges on the side for squeezing.

- In a medium bowl, combine the shrimp, eggs, cream cheese, coconut milk, garlic, salt, pepper and lime zest (or kaffir lime powder) until well mixed. Mix in the panko crumbs, green onions and cilantro.
- Line a baking sheet with wax paper. To form each shrimp cake, firmly pack some of the mixture into a 1/4 cup measure that has been sprayed with nonstick cooking spray. Turn upside down and tap until the formed shrimp cake comes out onto the paper-lined baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining mixture. Using the back side of a spatula, gently press on each cake to flatten slightly. Refrigerate for 30 minutes to one hour.
- Heat 1/4-inch of vegetable oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add the shrimp cakes in a single layer and cook until golden brown, about 2 minutes per side. Work in batches to avoid overcrowding the pan. Once cooked, the shrimp cakes can be kept warm in a 300°F oven for up to 30 minutes. Serve with sweet Thai chili sauce for dipping.
