INGREDIENTS Shrimp patty

  • 1/2 lb (~16) large shrimp half finely minced, and half diced

  • 2 tbsp yellow onion finely diced

  • 3 tbsp all-purpose flour

  • 1 tbsp water

  • pinch of salt and pepper

Breading




Dressing

  • 1/4 cup (4 tbsp) Kewpie mayonnaise or regular mayo

  • 1 tsp ketchup

  • 1/2 tsp yellow mustard or wasabi

  • 1 tbsp yellow onion finely diced

  • light pinch of pepper

Assembly

  • 2 brioche buns or regular burger buns

  • 1/2 cup lettuce shredded

  • 2 slices tomato

  • 2 slices mozzarella cheese slightly melted


INSTRUCTIONS Shrimp Patty

  • Prepare three separate trays of flour, egg, and panko bread crumbs.

  • In a bowl, add shrimp (half minced and half diced), onion, a pinch of salt and pepper, and mix together. Add flour and water and mix to combine. Lightly wet your hands with water, divide the mixture, and shape it into patties.

  • Carefully coat each patty with flour, egg, and bread crumbs in order, making sure each side is evenly coated and shaking off any excess.

  • Prepare at least 2 inches of oil in a large pan over medium heat. Once the oil reaches 350°F, cook for about 3-4 minutes flipping halfway, or until golden brown.

Dressing

  • Add all dressing ingredients to a small bowl, and mix to combine.

Assembly

  • Lightly toast the brioche buns with butter. Spread each bun with a generous amount of dressing. Top with lettuce, shrimp patty, cheese, tomato, lettuce. Serve immediately and enjoy!




NOTES Shrimp patties can be frozen for later use, although serving it fresh does yield the best results. Simply add a few more minutes to the frying time upon cooking, and assemble with fresh toppings. Although this recipe was designed to make a burger, the panko-breaded shrimp can also be enjoyed on its own with some rice and dressing on the side, or wrapped around some Japanese milk bread to serve.
