Steps:
- Pulse or blend shallots, lemongrass, ginger, chile, garlic, tomato paste, sugar, 1 tsp. Diamond Crystal or ½ tsp. Morton kosher salt, and ½ cup water in a food processor or blender until a coarse purée forms.
- Heat oil in a medium skillet over medium-high. Scrape purée into pan and cook, stirring often, until mixture darkens and thickens to the consistency of tomato paste, 12-15 minutes. If it begins to stick and brown, stir in a little water (about 1 Tbsp.), scraping up any browned bits with a wooden spoon. (You should have about ⅔ cup.)
- Transfer mixture to a small bowl and vigorously mix in cream cheese and mayonnaise. Stir in crabmeat, half of the scallions, and half of the cilantro. Taste dip and season with more salt if needed.
- Transfer dip to a serving bowl. Top with remaining scallions and cilantro, then with fried shallots (if using). Serve with shrimp chips.
Tips:
- Use fresh, high-quality ingredients for the best flavor.
- Feel free to adjust the amount of crab and shrimp to your liking.
- If you don't have cream cheese on hand, you can substitute sour cream or Greek yogurt.
- For a spicier dip, add a pinch of cayenne pepper or red pepper flakes.
- Serve the dip with a variety of dippers, such as crackers, chips, or vegetables.
Conclusion:
