Aku Cakes

Ingredients

  • 1 lb. aku
  • 1 Tbsp. garlic, minced
  • 1 tsp. ginger, grated
  • ½ tsp. sesame oil
  • 1 egg, beaten
  • 2 tsp. garlic salt
  • ½ tsp. panko breadcrumbs
  • 3 Tbsp. green onion, diced

Breading

  • 2 eggs, beaten
  • 1 cup panko breadcrumbs
  • ½ cup vegetable oil

Directions

Cut the aku into large chunks and place them in a food processor. Pulse the aku until chunky. In a bowl, combine the aku with the remaining ingredients, except for the 2 eggs, panko breadcrumbs, and vegetable oil. Form the mixture into 4 to 6 patties.

Preheat the vegetable oil over medium heat in a large sauté pan. Dip each patty into the beaten eggs, then coat with the panko breadcrumbs. Fry the patties for 1 to 2 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Drain excess oil on paper towels.
