THAI-STYLE SHRIMP CAKES WITH SWEET CHILI DIPPING SAUCE RECIPE

Steps:

• 1. Coarsely chop shrimp into 1/2-inch pieces. Set aside. Reserve a few tablespoons of sliced scallion greens for serving.
• 2. Combine garlic, jalapeño, remaining scallions, cilantro, lime zest, and a large pinch of salt in the bowl of a food processor. Pulse until everything is finely minced. Add half of the shrimp, the mayo, the cornstarch, and the egg white. Pulse until the mixture forms a coarse paste, about 5 or 6 pulses. Add the remaining shrimp and pulse two or three times to combine everything. Some of the shrimp will be chunkier.
• 3. Transfer the mixture to a bowl and add 1/4 cup of the panko breadcrumbs. Fold in with a spatula or your hands. The mixture should be soft and should just hold its shape if you form a ball. If it's too soft, add more breadcrumbs a little at a time until a ball just holds together. It will stiffen up more when it gets cold. Chill mixture for at least 30 minutes and up to a day.
• 4. Once chilled, use wet hands and a tablespoon (or portioning scoop) to form the mixture into bite-sized patties. Transfer to a large plate as you go. When all the patties are formed, heat a few tablespoons of oil in a large skillet over medium high heat until shimmering. Fry patties in batches until golden brown and cooked through, turning once, 3 to 4 minutes total.

• Notes:.
• You could make substitutions for the flounder, or use all fish if you didn't want to use shrimp.
• Recipe, as posted, is mildly spicy, "warm," but not very spicy "hot". It could be toned up or down by adjusting the red curry paste a bit, but the flavor is central to this dish.
• Since I mostly serve this at parties, # of servings is very approximate. Sorry, but time is, too - I guessed. Next time I'll time it. I counted the frying as active time.
