Asian Shrimp And Crab Cakes

Features:
    Cuisine:

    Turned out very nicely. They are delicate, and require a bit of finesse in turning to keep them together, but having said that, without egg, they stayed together much better than anticipated. The flavor was really good, the combination of crab and shrimp seem to complement each other, and fresh ginger adds just the right flavor. I had purchased 1/2 pound of medium shrimp and had kept 6 out for summer rolls, so did use a bit more than the 3 ounces called for. I cleaned, deveined, and chopped the raw shrimp and added to the mixture. Cooking for 5 or 7 minutes a side was enough so that the shrimp were nicely pink.

I love the touch of ginger flavor Used yogurt instead of mayo to cut some calories, seemed to work fine I’ll definitely be making these again
