On a large round plate, the triangular shrimp cakes are arranged in a radiating pattern, resembling the rays of the sun. The green banana leaves lining the bottom of the plate complement the dish beautifully.
Ingredients: shrimp, spring roll wrappers, tapioca starch, lard, pepper, salt, granulated sugar, white sugar, and plum.
Method: First, clean and finely chop the shrimp, then use the back of a knife to pound it. Add tapioca starch, a small amount of lard, pepper, and salt. The tapioca starch helps increase the shrimp's stickiness, while the lard enhances its bounciness. After thoroughly mixing and pounding the shrimp, sandwich it between two spring roll wrappers and deep fry until golden. The plum is combined with granulated sugar and white sugar to make a sweet and tangy plum sauce, which complements the shrimp cakes' rich flavor.
Scene 1: Star-shaped plating with a focus on ethnic style
Plating Method
① First, cut the banana leaf into a circular shape and place it on the plate. Use a small, bright green bowl to hold the plum sauce and set it on top of the banana leaf.
② Arrange four shrimp crackers evenly at the four corners of the plate, then place the other four shrimp crackers in the gaps between them. This creates a radiant pattern, resembling the warm rays of the sun.
Plating Tip: The banana leaf not only enhances the visual appeal and adds fragrance, but it also absorbs excess oil. If you don’t have access to banana leaves, you can use a sheet of white paper as a substitute to achieve the same oil-absorbing effect.
Scene 2: Crescent-shaped plating with a black round plate highlighting an air of Eastern mystery
Black tableware, due to its darker hue, can be tricky to pair when plating. However, when used skillfully, it creates a unique ambiance. The golden color of the shrimp cakes stands out against the black round plate, not only emphasizing the vibrant color but also infusing the presentation with a sense of Eastern mystique. To enhance the contrast, a pure white saucer is chosen to serve the dipping sauce, and the plate is garnished with mint leaves and chili carvings, making the shrimp cakes even more visually enticing.
Plating Method
① Slightly offset the round banana leaf to the edge of the black plate, leaving space for the shrimp crackers. Place a small white dish of sauce on the banana leaf.
② Arrange the shrimp crackers along two-thirds of the edge of the sauce dish.
③ Use the remaining space to add a chili garnish and mint leaves for decoration.
