Whitefish And Shrimp Cakes Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Puree the mayonnaise, parsley, scallion, garlic, 2 tablespoons water, 1 tablespoon lemon juice, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in a food processor; transfer to a bowl.
• Add half of the shrimp to the food processor and pulse until a thick paste forms. Add the remaining shrimp, 1/2 cup panko, 2 tablespoons of the prepared dressing, the egg and lemon zest. Pulse until combined but still chunky. With oiled hands, shape the mixture into eight 1/2-inch-thick patties. Transfer to a baking sheet; freeze 5 minutes.
• Put the remaining 1/2 cup panko on a plate. Heat the vegetable oil in a large nonstick ovenproof skillet over medium heat. Coat the patties on both sides with the panko; cook until golden, 2 minutes per side. Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake until the patties are cooked through, 5 to 7 minutes.
• Meanwhile, toss the greens, radishes, 2 tablespoons of the dressing and the remaining 1 tablespoon lemon juice; season with salt and pepper. Serve the shrimp cakes with the salad and remaining dressing.

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.

Steps:

• Steam potatoes until tender, about 10 minutes. Transfer potatoes to large bowl and mash. Steam fish until cooked through, about 10 minutes. Transfer fish to plate; cool 5 minutes. Flake fish and add to potatoes. Mix in shrimp, smoked salmon, green onions, dill and lemon peel. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Using about 1/3 cupful at a time, shape fish mixture into 12 balls; flatten into 1/2-inch-thick cakes. Place bread- crumbs in shallow bowl. Coat each cake with breadcrumbs, pressing to adhere.
• Heat 3 tablespoons oil in heavy large skillet over medium heat. Working in batches, sauté fish cakes until brown and heated through, adding more oil as needed, about 3 minutes per side.
• Divide fish cakes among 4 plates. Serve with lemon wedges.

Steps:

• In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons oil over medium heat.
• Add the celery, and onion; cook and stir frequently for 2-3 minutes; transfer to a mixing bowl.
• Add the mayo, mustard, dill, Tabasco, and 1/4 cup of bread crumbs to the mixing bowl with the onion/celery mixture; stir to combine.
• Season with salt and pepper.
• Add the shrimp; stir to combine.
• Put the remaining bread crumbs on a plate or flat dish.
• Using 1/3 cup shrimp mixture, form a patty with your hands.
• Place the cake on the bread crumbs; press lightly, then turn and repeat with the other side.
• Roll the patty's sides in the crumbs also.
• The patty should be completely coated in bread crumbs.
• Repeat with remaining shrimp mixture.
• Add 2 tablespoons oil into a nonstick skillet, heat over medium heat.
• When the oil is hot, add 4 cakes or however many your skillet will hold.
• Fry cakes for about 2 minutes or until golden on the bottom; flip patties and cook for 2 more minutes or until golden.
• Repeat with remaining oil and shrimp cakes.
• Serve hot shrimp cakes with cocktail sauce, tartar sauce, or salsa.

Steps:

• Place shrimp, garlic, cilantro, chili paste, brown sugar, salt, fish sauce, turmeric, and cayenne pepper into the bowl of a food processor. Pulse on and off until mixture begins to break down. Scrape down the sides. Continue processing until mixture is very smooth but not pureed and moves around the bowl as a mass. Transfer to a bowl. Cover with plastic wrap; press wrap against the surface of the shrimp paste. Refrigerate until mixture is chilled, 1 to 2 hours.
• Place panko crumbs on a plate. Scoop out equal size portions of shrimp and roll them around on the crumbs to coat. Shape into thin patties. Do this in batches.
• Heat oil in skillet over medium-high heat. When oil is hot, cook cakes in batches. Fry until golden brown and cakes spring back to the touch, about 2 minutes per side. Drain on paper towels.

Steps:

• For sauce:
• Stir cucumber, mayonnaise, horseradish, parsley, and chives in medium bowl to blend. Season sauce to taste with salt and pepper. DO AHEAD: Sauce can be made 1 day ahead. Cover and refrigerate.
• For fish cakes:
• Line large rimmed baking sheet with plastic wrap. Heat 3 tablespoons oil in heavy large skillet over medium heat. Add carrots and leeks. Saut233 until soft but not brown, about 15 minutes. Cool in skillet.
• Beat eggs, matzo meal, coarse salt, and white pepper in large bowl to blend. Stir in carrot mixture. Place whitefish and salmon cubes in processor. Using on/off turns, chop fish to coarse paste (small pieces of fish will remain). Stir fish into matzo meal mixture.
• Using wet hands and about 1/3 cup for each, shape fish mixture into sixteen 1/2-inch-thick cakes. Arrange on prepared baking sheet. DO AHEAD: Can be made 1 day ahead. Cover with plastic and chill.
• Add enough oil to 2 heavy large skillets to coat bottom. Heat oil over medium-high heat. Add 8 fish cakes to each skillet. Sauté until golden and cooked through, about 3 minutes per side. DO AHEAD: Can be made 2 hours ahead. Transfer to another baking sheet, cover, and refrigerate. Rewarm uncovered in 350°F oven 10 minutes.
• Arrange 2 fish cakes on each plate. Spoon sauce over or alongside. Garnish with lemon wedges and parsley.
• What to drink:
• A Chardonnay would be delicious with the haroseth and the salmon and whitefish cakes. We like the apple, pear, and vanilla notes of the Baron Herzog 2006 Chardonnay from Herzog Wine Cellars on California's Central Coast. It's a great kosher wine and a good value at $13.
