🙋 Recommended for

  • Those who enjoy the spicy, clean taste of wasabi mayo sauce.
  • Those looking for a special weekend treat or a home party menu for entertaining guests.

Ingredients needed 🛒2 servings

  • 300g shrimp
  • 30g onion
  • 4 tbsp mayonnaise
  • 1 tbsp sugar
  • 1 tsp fresh wasabi
  • 2 hamburger buns
  • 1 tbsp starch powder
  • a pinch of salt
  • a pinch of pepper
  • enough oil for frying

Recipe 🍳

  1. Finely chop the onion for the sauce and remove any excess moisture.
  2. In a bowl, combine mayonnaise, chopped onion, sugar, fresh wasabi, and pepper, and mix well to make a sweet and spicy wasabi mayo sauce.
  3. Wash the shrimp thoroughly, pat dry completely, then press and crush them with the back of a knife, and roughly chop with the blade to preserve texture.
  4. Add salt, pepper, and starch powder to the chopped shrimp, and knead until it becomes sticky. Shape into round, flat patties.
  5. Fry the shrimp patties in oil at about 140-150°C until golden brown. Double-frying is recommended to ensure even cooking throughout.
  6. Split the hamburger buns in half and lightly toast the cut sides in a dry pan.
  7. Spread a generous amount of sauce on the inside of the toasted buns, place the fried shrimp patty on top, and cover with the other half to finish.
  1. Mix chopped onion, mayonnaise, sugar, and wasabi to make the sauce.
  2. Crush the shrimp with the back of a knife and chop, then knead with salt, pepper, and starch into patties, and fry until golden.
  3. Spread sauce on toasted buns, add the patty, and assemble to finish.

Cooking tips 💡

  • If you grind the shrimp in a blender, the signature springy texture of a homemade patty will be lost, so be sure to chop it roughly with a knife.
  • To prevent the buns from getting soggy due to moisture from the sauce or ingredients, it's best to toast the cut sides until crispy in a pan.
  • If the oil temperature is too high, the outside will burn while the inside remains raw, so fry over medium-low heat where bubbles rise steadily for gentle cooking.
