Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 large egg
1 scallion, thinly sliced, white and green parts, separated
2 teaspoons finely grated freshly peeled ginger
1 tablespoon soy sauce
5 tablespoons low-fat or regular mayonnaise
1 lime
8 ounces jumbo lump crabmeat, drained and picked over for shells
8 ounces bay shrimp, deveined and finely chopped
4 tablespoons panko (Japanese breadcrumbs), plus up to 2 cups for breading
Freshly ground pepper
1 tablespoon wasabi powder
1/4 cup vegetable oil
Sprouts for serving, optional

Steps:

  • 1. Whisk the egg with the scallion whites, ginger, soy sauce and 3 tablespoons of the mayonnaise in a large bowl. Finley grate the zest and add it and the juice from 1/2 the lime to the mixture. (Cut the remaining 1/2 lime in wedges and reserve for serving.) Fold the crabmeat, shrimp, and 4 tablespoons of the panko into the mixture and season with pepper.
  • 2. Put some panko in a shallow bowl for breading. Divide the crab mixture evenly into 4 patties, about 3 inches in diameter. Coat each patty all over with the panko, transfer to a plate and refrigerate until set, about 30 minutes.
  • 3. Meanwhile, put the wasabi powder in a small bowl, stir in 2 tablespoons water and let stand for 5 minutes. Stir in 2 tablespoons mayonnaise. (This should be the consistency of heavy cream.) Set aside.
  • 4. Preheat the oven to 375 F.
  • 5. Heat the oil in a large oven-safe nonstick pan over medium-high heat. Add the crab cakes and cook until light brown and crisp, about 3 minutes per side. Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake the crab cakes until the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees F inside, 8 to 10 minutes.
  • 6. Drain on paper towels. Serve the crab cakes on a bed of sprouts if desired, top with the scallion greens, wasabi mayonnaise and lime wedges.

GARLIC SHRIMP WITH WASABI MAYONNAISE



Garlic Shrimp With Wasabi Mayonnaise image

These shrimp are indeed garlicy, and the mayonnaise spicy--that's why we love them so much-- but be forewarned. The wasabi mayonnaise also makes a nice dip for crudites. Preparation time includes marinating time for the shrimp

Provided by FlemishMinx

Categories     Sauces

Time 40m

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

3/4 cup mayonnaise
1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger
2 teaspoons lime zest
1 teaspoon fresh lime juice
1/2 teaspoon sugar
2 -4 teaspoons wasabi paste, to taste
1 lb shrimp, cleaned and peeled
3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon finely chopped garlic
2 tablespoons grated fresh ginger
1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
fresh ground black pepper, to taste

Steps:

  • Stir together all the ingredients for the wasabi mayonnaise, beginning with 2 tsp wasabi paste, adding and tasting until you achieve your desired level of spiciness; place in the refrigerator until needed.
  • Stir together all the"FOR THE SHRIMP" ingredients, EXCEPT the shrimp.
  • When thoroughly combined, pour over the shrimp, and mix well making sure that each piece is well covered with the marinade.
  • Place in the refrigerator and allow to marinate 15 minutes; do not go much beyond this time, or the lime juice will begin to"cook" the shrimp, making them tough.
  • Put the shrimp (marinade and all) in one layer in a large dry non-stick frypan over medium-high heat, season with pepper to your taste and saute just until pink.
  • I usually get them arranged in one layer, and by this time the first ones are beginning to color; I immediately begin to turn them over one by one and by then the first ones are ready to come out of the pan; by the time I've gotten to the last one they will all be cooked to my liking.
  • Remove to a serving dish and don't forget to bring the wasabi mayo out of the fridge.

Number Of Ingredients 23

3/4 pound raw shrimp, peeled and deveined, tail removed *
2 egg whites
1/4 cup heavy cream
1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/4 teaspoon cumin seeds
1/2 cup 1/4-inch cubes peeled jicama
3 green onions, white parts only, finely chopped
2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro leaves
1 1/2 tablespoons rasped or finely grated ginger
3 minced kaffir lime leaves
3/4 pound crabmeat
3 cups panko bread crumbs**
Vegetable oil, for frying
Ginger-Lime Sauce, recipe follows
1 cup sugar
1 cup water
1 cup peeled, thinly sliced, fresh ginger
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/3 cup cilantro leaves
3 tablespoons lime juice
1 fresh green Thai chile, seeded, roughly chopped***
2 tablespoons roughly chopped green onion, green part only

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.

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.
