RUSSELL'S THAI STYLE CRAB AND PRAWN CAKES



Russell's Thai Style Crab and Prawn Cakes image

We are currently travelling around Australia, following the crab season it seems. One of our favourite ways to eat all these crabs we catch is in crab cakes. Russell has almost perfected them for our tastes-but I tell him he'll just need to practice a bit more ;-)

COMPANY SHRIMP-AND-CRAB CAKES

The addition of shrimp gives crab cakes a new flavor. Using panko instead of flour makes the prep easier, plus the cakes stay together without tasting doughy. I love these crab cakes served with mango salsa! -Regina Reynolds, Struthers, Ohio

THAI-STYLE CRAB CAKES



Thai-Style Crab Cakes image

Juicy fat little nuggets of crabby goodness! I developed this because of a craving for a sweet-hot crab dish I'd enjoyed at a Thai restaurant. I love crabmeat (jumbo lump, please, none of the frozen/canned yuck for *moi*) but dislike most crab-cake recipes because they are either too bready, or somehow involve cheese. Just me personally: I don't like pairing fish with cheese. These succulent cakes will be our dinner entree for New Year's Eve 2011!

THAI STYLE CRAB CAKES



Thai Style Crab Cakes image

This is a formidable crab cake in a style that mimics tod mun, the Thai fish cake that, when made right, packs astonishing flavor. These cakes require shrimp purée as a binder; scallops will also work in place of the shrimp. Just stick a few in a small food processor and whiz for a few seconds, or chop and mash by hand.

Time 45m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

6 medium raw shrimp, shelled, washed and deveined
1 teaspoon nam pla (fish sauce)
1 pound fresh lump crab meat, picked over for cartilage
1 egg
1/4 cup chopped scallion
1/4 cup chopped cilantro
1 fresh chili, preferably Thai, minced
1 teaspoon minced fresh ginger
Salt
freshly ground black pepper
2 to 3 tablespoons bread crumbs, preferably fresh
About 1/2 cup all-purpose flour for dredging
Peanut or vegetable oil as needed
Lime wedges for serving

Steps:

  • Purée shrimp in a food processor (smaller is better) until you have a smooth paste, or chop and mash by hand. Add fish sauce. In a bowl, mix the shrimp purée, crab meat, egg, scallion, cilantro, chili, ginger and salt and pepper; add just enough bread crumbs to stiffen mixture a bit. Refrigerate mixture until you are ready to cook; it will be easier to shape into cakes if you refrigerate it for 30 minutes or more.
  • Season flour with salt and pepper. Film bottom of a large skillet with oil and place over medium-high heat. Shape crab meat mixture into cakes 1 inch thick and as wide as you want. Dredge each in flour, and cook, adjusting heat as necessary and turning once (very gently), until golden brown on both sides, about 5 minutes a side. Serve with lime wedges.
