List of Ingredients




-- Crab Cakes --

1/2 cup white jasmine rice
1 cup water
1/4 tsp salt
2 tsp plus 2 Tbsp canola oil, divided
1 medium shallot, peeled and minced
1 medium clove garlic, peeled and minced
1/2 cup minced red or yellow bell pepper
1 tsp grated lemon zest
2 Tbsp lemon juice
1 Tbsp Thai fish sauce
2 eggs, lightly beaten
1 lb. cooked crab meat
2 Tbsp plus 1-1/2 cups panko bread crumbs, divided


-- Sauce --

2 Tbsp lime juice
1 Tbsp rice vinegar
2 Tbsp Thai fish sauce
3 Tbsp water
2-1/4 tsp sugar
1/2 tsp hot chili oil
2 tsp minced cilantro
1/4 cup peeled and finely grated carrots



Recipe



To prepare the crab cakes: Combine the rice, water and salt in a medium saucepan. Bring to a boil, stirring well. Continue boiling until the level of liquid just covers the rice. Turn the heat to low, cover and cook 15 minutes. Transfer to a large bowl, cool, then refrigerate until cold.


Heat 2 teaspoons oil in a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the shallot, garlic and bell pepper. Saute about 5 minutes to soften. Scrape into a bowl and cool.


When both rice and vegetables have cooled, combine and add lemon zest, juice, fish sauce, eggs, crab meat and 2 tablespoons panko crumbs. Spread the remaining panko crumbs on a plate. Form the crab mixture into 8 cakes. It will be very moist; press lightly together with your hands. Dredge in the crumbs; if the cakes fall apart, just press together. Transfer to 2 clean plates and refrigerate 30 minutes.


To prepare the sauce: Stir together the lime juice, vinegar, fish sauce, water, sugar and chili oil. Stir in the cilantro and carrots. Refrigerate until ready to serve.


Place a tablespoon oil in each of 2 large, nonstick skillets; set over medium heat. When the pans are hot, place 4 crab cakes in each pan and cook 5 minutes. Carefully turn with a wide spatula and continue cooking 4 minutes. (If cakes fall apart, simply press down lightly with the spatula and re-form into cakes.)

Serve the sauce on the side of the crab cakes.

Makes 8 crab cakes.
