How to Make Sesame Ginger Shrimp Cakes

To make these Sesame Ginger Shrimp Cakes, you start by using a food processor to grind up the fresh ginger, garlic, cilantro, chopped green onion and sesame oil. Then add the raw shrimp and blend until well combined. (you can use a knife and cutting board for this step if you don’t have a food processor.)

Next add the ground pork to the food processor and blend until the mixture is completely mixed through. Shape into 8 small patties and fry in a frying pan or skillet over medium heat for 4 – 5 minutes per side or until the patties are fully cooked through.

WHAT IS THE KETOGENIC DIET?

The ketogenic diet (often called keto) is a very low-carb, high-fat diet that shares similarities to paleo, Whole30, and Atkins. It involves drastically reducing carbohydrate intake, and replacing it with fat. When your body switches to burning fat for its primary fuel source, that’s when you hit ketosis.

While on the Keto diet you’re supposed to get at least 70 percent of your calories from fat, 15 to 25 percent from protein, and 10 percent from carbohydrates. You’re supposed to avoid all grains, legumes, root vegetables, fruit, (except berries) and sugar.
