• 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.

• Gently toss the crabmeat with lemon juice and ginger. Set aside.
• In oil, saute' onions, pepper, and garlic until it is all soft. Let cool and toss with crabmeat. Add remaining ingredients, except for breadcrumbs.

• Remove from freezer and pat with bread crumbs on both sides.
• Palace on parchment-covered baking sheet and bake for 2 minutes at 350, or until browned.
• Top with 1 T sweet chili sauce and serve.

Steps:

• In a large bowl, gently combine the crab meat, rice, jalapenos, lemon zest, basil and mint. Carefully stir in the salt, the pepper, the eggs and the bread crumbs, leaving the crab in fairly large lumps. Using 1 tablespoon of the mixture for each cake, press into croquettes that are about 2 inches in diameter.
• Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Working in batches, cook the cakes until nicely browned and firm, about 1 1/2 minutes per side. Add more oil to the skillet as needed between batches. Serve hot.
