Creating the delicious Thai Shrimp Cakes with Chili Aioli is easier than you might think. Follow these simple steps:
- Prepare the Shrimp: Chop the shrimp into small pieces and place them in a mixing bowl.
- Mix Ingredients: Add breadcrumbs, cilantro, and green onions to the bowl. Season with salt and pepper.
- Form Cakes: Shape the mixture into small patties, about 2-3 inches in diameter, and set them aside.
- Heat the Oil: In a large skillet, heat vegetable oil over medium heat until hot.
- Cook the Shrimp Cakes: Place the cakes into the hot oil. Fry them for 3-4 minutes on each side or until golden brown and crispy.
- Prepare Chili Aioli: In a small bowl, combine mayonnaise, chili sauce, lime juice, and a pinch of salt. Mix well until smooth.
- Drain and Serve: Remove the shrimp cakes from the skillet and let them drain on a paper towel to remove excess oil.
