THAI RED CURRY CRAB CAKES WITH A CHILI DIPPING SAUCE
Another recipe I made for my sisters birthday, very tasty crab cake recipe. I use fresh crab as I love the flavour of it, but canned is fine. It is also very easy to make, more time consuming if you have to crack crab, but you do taste the difference.

- In a medium bowl, mix all ingredients except the remaining 2 tablespoons of the breadcrumbs. With your hands, mold into 1 large cake, about 1 inch high. Then coat the crab cake with the remaining 2 tablespoons breadcrumbs.
- In a 10-inch skillet, heat enough oil to come 1/4-inch up the sides of the skillet over medium heat. Carefully place the crab cake in the hot oil and fry until golden brown and crispy, about 4-5 minutes on each side.
- To serve, place the Jicama and Chayote Slaw on a serving plate and top with the Crab Cake. Drizzle the plate and Crab Cake with the Coconut Thai Red Curry Sauce.
- In a small bowl, mix together all ingredients with a rubber spatula. Use a slotted spoon to place slaw on plates so that mixture is not too liquidy.
- In a small saucepan over medium heat, simmer the lemon grass, ginger, lime leaf, and sugar with 1/2 cup water until slightly reduced, about 15 to 25 minutes. Strain mixture through a sieve into a heat-proof bowl, and reserve the liquid.
- In a separate small saucepan over high heat, boil the curry paste and 1 tablespoon of the coconut milk until brown. Slowly add the rest of the coconut milk. Reduce the heat and simmer until liquid has reduced by 1/4. Add the reserved sugar mixture, and continue simmering until the sauce thickens and reaches a nappe consistency (thick enough to coat the back of a spoon).

Tips:
- Choose the right crab meat: Fresh crab meat is the best choice for these crab cakes, as it has a sweeter and more delicate flavor than canned or frozen crab meat. If you're using frozen crab meat, be sure to thaw it completely before using.
- Use a light touch when mixing the crab cakes: Overmixing the crab cakes will make them tough, so be gentle when combining the ingredients.
- Form the crab cakes into patties: Use a 1/4 cup measuring cup to scoop the crab cake mixture and then form it into a patty. Be sure to pack the crab cakes tightly so that they hold together when cooking.
- Pan-fry the crab cakes until golden brown: Pan-frying the crab cakes over medium heat will help them develop a nice crust and cook through evenly.
- Make the chili dipping sauce ahead of time: The chili dipping sauce can be made up to 2 days in advance and stored in the refrigerator. This makes it a great option for a party or potluck.
Conclusion:
Thai red curry crab cakes with a chili dipping sauce are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or main course. The crab cakes are packed with flavor and the chili dipping sauce adds a nice spicy kick. These crab cakes are sure to be a hit at your next party or potluck.
