Instructions
- 1
Grate the breadfruit. Squeeze out excess moisture using a clean kitchen towel.
- 2
Put the breadfruit, chopped shrimp, egg, green onion, flour, and salt in a bowl. Mix everything well.
- 3
Heat the oil in a nonstick skillet over medium heat.
- 4
Scoop portions of the mixture into the skillet. Press each portion down gently to make flat patties.
- 5
Fry for 3-4 minutes on each side. Cook until golden brown and cooked through.
- 6
Drain the patties briefly on paper towels. Serve them warm with finadene sauce (a tangy soy-vinegar dipping sauce).
Chef's tips
Squeeze as much liquid as possible out of the grated breadfruit so your patties stay together and turn out crisp.
Storage
Refrigerate up to 2 days in an airtight container.
Reheating
Reheat in a dry skillet over medium heat to re-crisp the surface.
Common mistakes to avoid
- •Skipping the squeezing step, which makes the patties soggy instead of crisp
- •Crowding too many patties into the skillet at once, which lowers the heat and makes them greasy
