FISH AND LOBSTER CAKES
"When I ran Barefoot Contessa, my specialty-food store in East Hampton, NY, we sold thousands and thousands of crab cakes every summer. They were not only delicious, but they were also perfect for entertaining because you could simply reheat them before dinner and serve them with our creamy, vinegary remoulade. I still make them at home: I cook them early in the day so I can be out of the kitchen by the time my guests arrive. Recently, I revisited my old recipe and decided to update it with lobster, flaky codfish, lemon zest and crunchy panko crumbs. I was glad I did! The fish cakes turned out to be a wonderful twist on traditional crab cakes. To make them ahead, I prepare the Fish and Lobster Cakes, place them on a sheet pan, wrap them well and refrigerate for a few hours. Before we eat, I just put them in a 350 degrees F oven for 15 minutes. Everyone thinks I whipped up dinner right before they arrived!" says Ina.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F.
- Heat 3 tablespoons of the butter in a large (12-inch) saute pan over medium-high heat. Add the onion, celery and bell pepper and cook over medium heat for 8 to 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until tender. Place the fish on top of the vegetables and add the cream, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper. Bring to a boil, lower the heat, cover and simmer for 6 to 12 minutes (depending on the thickness of the cod), until the fish is just cooked. Set aside in the pan for 10 minutes, then flake the fish into large pieces with a fork.
- Put 2 cups of the panko in a large bowl. Add the cod mixture, including the cooking liquid, the dill, mayonnaise, mustard, lemon zest, eggs, lobster, 2 teaspoons salt and 1 teaspoon black pepper and mix gently.
- Using a 2 1/4-inch ice cream scoop as a measure, shape the mixture into 14 (3-inch) fish cakes. Place the remaining 2 cups of panko on a plate and coat the cakes all over, patting the coating to adhere. Wipe the saute pan clean with a paper towel and heat 2 tablespoons of the butter and 2 tablespoons of oil in the pan over medium heat. Place 5 cakes in the pan and cook for 5 minutes on each side, until nicely browned on both sides. Transfer the cakes to a sheet pan and keep them warm in the oven for up to 15 minutes. Repeat, adding more butter and oil, until the entire mixture is cooked. Serve hot with the remoulade sauce.
- Remoulade Sauce: Place the mayonnaise, cornichons, mustard, vinegar, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt and 3/4 teaspoon pepper in the bowl of a food processor fitted with the steel blade. Pulse a few times until the cornichons are finely chopped (not pureed). Transfer to a sealed container and refrigerate for up to 5 days.

Steps:
- Make the mango dipping sauce: Place mango, shallot, jalapeno, cilantro, lime juice, sugar, and oil in the bowl of a food processor and process until smooth. If sauce is too thick, thin with water, adding 1 tablespoon at a time.
- Make the croquettes: Heat ghee in a small skillet over medium. Add shallot, bell pepper, and garlic and cook until softened, 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in cumin and season with salt and pepper. Cook for 1 minute more, then let cool to room temperature.
- Place mashed potato, parsley, cilantro, yogurt, and shallot mixture in a medium bowl. Gently fold to combine using a rubber spatula. Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes. Fold in crab.
- In a deep cast-iron skillet, heat oil until a deep-fry thermometer reaches 350 degrees. Place flour, eggs, and panko in three separate shallow dishes. Use a scoop or spoon to form the crab-and-potato mixture into 1 1/2-inch balls. Dredge each ball first in flour, then in egg, and finally in panko, ensuring that each ball is fully coated; shake off any excess.
- Working in batches, transfer croquettes to hot oil using a slotted spoon or spider, and cook, turning occasionally, until golden brown, 3 to 4 minutes. Transfer to a a paper towel-lined baking sheet; season with salt. Serve croquettes with mango dipping sauce.

Yield 4 to 6 servings (12 to 14 fritters)
Number Of Ingredients 17
Steps:
- Melt 2 tablespoons of the butter in a medium (10-inch) saute pan over medium heat. Add the scallions and corn and saute for 3 minutes, or until softened. Add the lobster and cook for 1 minute. Set aside.
- Combine the flour, baking powder, paprika, Old Bay seasoning, and 1 teaspoon salt in a large mixing bowl. Make a well in the center and whisk in the eggs and half-and-half, stirring until the mixture is smooth, like a thick pancake batter. Stir in the corn and lobster mixture. (The batter may be made up to an hour ahead and refrigerated.)
- For the sauce, place the garlic, saffron, sriracha, lemon juice, mayonnaise, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in the bowl of a food processor fitted with the steel blade and puree until smooth.
- To make the fritters, heat 2 to 3 tablespoons of the butter in a large (12-inch) saute pan over medium to medium-high heat. For each fritter, drop 2 rounded tablespoons of the batter into the hot butter and cook for 2 to 3 minutes on each side, until golden brown and firm to the touch. Don't crowd the skillet or they won't brown evenly. Repeat until all the batter is used, adding butter as necessary. Serve the fritters hot with a dollop of sauce on the side.
