Chive Cakes image

The Chinese were in Vietnam for a long time and this is actually a dim sum dish. It's awfully good, so we put it on the menu at my restaurant. Reprinted with permission from The Slanted Door by Charles Phan, copyright (c) 2014. Published by Ten Speed Press, a division of Penguin Random House, Inc.

Time 1h15m

Yield 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 22

3/4 pound shrimp, peeled, deveined, and coarsely chopped
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1 tbsp fish sauce
1/2 tbsp Tapioca starch or corn starch
2 tbsps canola oil
1 tbsp Lard
1 garlic clove, minced
1 pound Chinese chives, cut into 1-inch pieces
1 cup diced, peeled, cooked water chestnut
1/2 cup dried shrimp
1/2 cup chopped green onions white and light green parts only
1/2 teaspoon ground white pepper
2 cups wheat starch
1 cup Tapioca starch
1 1/2 tbsps potato starch
1/2 tbsp sugar
3/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 tbsp canola oil
2 cups boiling water
1/4 cup Sriracha sauce
1/4 cup light soy sauce
1 tbsp canola oil

Steps:

  • For the filling: In a large bowl, combine fresh shrimp, salt, fish sauce, tapioca starch. Set aside. Stir-fry the chives in half of the oil and half of the lard with garlic and water chestnuts until the chives are soft. Place chives on the center of a large piece of cheesecloth, wrap up the cloth, and squeeze the mixture until there is no liquid. Set aside.
  • In a small bowl soak the dried shrimp in warm water to cover for about 20 minutes. Drain, discard the liquid, and coarsely chop the shrimp. In a skillet or sauté pan over medium-high heat, warm the canola oil and remaining lard until shimmering. Add the dried shrimp and stir until the shrimp turns brown. Remove and set aside. In the same skillet add the fresh shrimp, pepper and green onions and saute until cooked through, 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat and combine shrimp-both fresh and dried-and chives.
  • For the dough: In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, combine the starches, bread flour, sugar, salt, and oil. Mix on high speed, slowly adding the hot water until a sticky dough forms, about 5 minutes. Turn the dough out onto your work surface and divide into 10 pieces. Using a small rolling pin, roll out the ball into circles about 1/8 inch thick and 4-5 inches in diameter. Holding the dough in your palm, add about 2-3 tablespoons of the filling in the middle of each circle and pinch the ends together. Lightly pat down to flatten the cake. Repeat with the remaining dough and filling.
  • Set up a steamer and steam the chive cakes until the dough is translucent, about 7-10 minutes.
  • Remove the dumplings from the steamer and set aside to cool. Just before serving, coat the bottom of the skillet with oil and pan fry the chive cakes until browned on both sides.
  • Serve with both hot Sriracha and soy sauce for dipping.

SHRIMP CAKES RECIPE



Shrimp Cakes Recipe image

Switch things up and make shrimp cakes instead of crab cakes. You can prepare and refrigerate the shrimp cakes up to 4 hours before cook time. The sauce, which can be made up to 5 days in advance, is also delicious served on po'boys or any fried fish. Have extra horseradish? Add a peppery kick to coleslaw dressing, deviled egg filling, or macaroni and cheese. Just remember that a little bit goes a long way.

CRISPY SHRIMP CAKES WITH CHILE-LIME MAYO



Crispy Shrimp Cakes With Chile-Lime Mayo image

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.

Categories     weekday, seafood, main course

Time 45m

Yield 3 to 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

3 to 5 large original or lightly salted rice cakes, or 6 to 10 thin cakes (see Tip)
1 pound shelled large raw shrimp (20 to 24), coarsely chopped
1/4 cup minced shallot (or use onion or scallion)
6 tablespoons chopped cilantro
6 tablespoons chopped basil leaves, more for serving
3 tablespoons minced jalapeño or red chile pepper
2 1/2 teaspoons fish sauce
Fine sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1 lime
Safflower, peanut or grapeseed oil, for frying

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.

For shrimp cakes
2 tablespoons finely diced carrot
1/4 cup finely chopped onion
1/2 cup finely chopped fresh shiitake caps (2 large)

1 large egg yolk, lightly beaten
1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt
1 teaspoon light shoyu (Japanese soy sauce)
2 teaspoons sugar
1 quart vegetable oil
For wasabi vinaigrette
1 tablespoon prepared wasabi paste
1 tablespoon mayonnaise
1 tablespoon mirin (Japanese sweet rice wine)
1 tablespoon rice vinegar (not seasoned)
White pepper to taste
For mirin sauce
2 1/2 tablespoons mirin
2 1/2 tablespoons dark shoyu (Japanese soy sauce)
1 teaspoon sugar
1 teaspoon cornstarch mixed with 1 tablespoon cold water
For plating
6 ounces mesclun (4 cups)
4 fresh shiso leaves, thinly sliced
3/4 cup tightly packed katsuo bushi (dried bonito flakes)
1 1/4 ounces daikon sprouts, trimmed
Special Equipment
cheesecloth; a deep-fat thermometer

Steps:

  • Make dashi:
  • Wipe any sand or salt from kombu with a dampened cloth.
  • Bring water and kombu almost to a boil in a 2-quart saucepan, then reduce heat and simmer, uncovered, 5 minutes. Add katsuo bushi and bring to a boil, then boil 30 seconds. Remove from heat and let stand 3 minutes, skimming any foam. Pour dashi through a cheesecloth-lined sieve into a bowl.
  • Make shrimp mixture:
  • Cook carrot, onion, and mushrooms in 1/4 cup dashi, uncovered, in a small heavy skillet over moderate heat, stirring frequently, until carrot and onion are softened, about 4 minutes. Cool slightly.
  • Stir together shrimp, fish, vegetable mixture, yolk, sea salt, shoyu, and sugar in a bowl until combined well, then knead with your hands to form a paste. Chill, covered, until cold, about 1 hour.
  • Make wasabi vinaigrette:
  • Whisk together wasabi paste and mayonnaise, then add mirin and rice vinegar in a slow stream, whisking until blended well. Season with white pepper.
  • Make mirin sauce:
  • Bring mirin, shoyu, sugar, and 1/4 cup dashi to a simmer in a small saucepan. Stir cornstarch mixture, then whisk into mirin mixture and boil, whisking, 1 minute. Remove from heat and keep warm, covered.
  • Fry shrimp cakes:
  • Heat oil in a deep 10-inch skillet over moderate heat until it registers 250°F on thermometer. While oil is heating, form shrimp mixture into 4 (1/2-inch-thick) cakes. Fry cakes until light golden, about 2 minutes on each side, then transfer with a wide metal spatula to paper towels to drain. Transfer cakes with spatula to clean paper towels to drain again. Cut each cake into 1/2-inch-wide slices.
  • Assemble dishes:
  • Divide mesclun among 4 plates and sprinkle with shiso leaves. Arrange shrimp cake slices over salads and drizzle with vinaigrette and mirin sauce. Top each serving with 2 rounded tablespoons katsuo bushi, then with sprouts.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients for the best flavor.
  • Be sure to devein and clean the shrimp before cooking.
  • Don't overcook the shrimp, or they will become tough.
  • Serve the shrimp cakes immediately, while they are hot and crispy.
  • The asparagus and chive vinaigrette is a great way to add flavor and brightness to the shrimp cakes.

Conclusion:

These shrimp cakes with asparagus and chive vinaigrette are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or main course. They are perfect for a summer party or a special occasion. The shrimp cakes are crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and the asparagus and chive vinaigrette adds a bright and flavorful touch.
