SCALLION PANCAKES WITH CHILI-GINGER DIPPING SAUCE

Steps:

• Sauce:
• Whisk ginger, soy sauce, vinegar, chili oil, and sugar in a small bowl until sugar is dissolved. Set sauce aside.
• Pancakes and assembly:
• Whisk flour, cornstarch, salt, and sugar in a large bowl. Whisk club soda, soy sauce, and sesame oil in a medium bowl to combine, then pour into dry ingredients and whisk until smooth (be careful not to overmix; it's okay if there are a few small lumps). Fold in scallions.
• Heat 1 Tbsp. oil in a medium nonstick skillet over medium-high. Pour ¼ cup batter into skillet. Cook, moving pan around on the burner for even cooking, until bottom of pancake is set and golden, about 2 minutes. Flip and cook, pressing down on pancake to create direct contact with pan, until other side is golden, about 1 minute. Continue cooking, turning often to keep scallions from burning, until golden brown and crisp and cooked through, about 5 minutes longer. Transfer pancake to a wire rack. Repeat process with remaining batter and remaining 3 Tbsp. oil 3 more times to make a total of 4 pancakes.
• Cut each pancake into wedges if desired and serve with reserved sauce on the side for dipping.

ASIAN SHRIMP AND GINGER FRITTERS WITH SWEET CHILI DIPPING SAUCE

Steps:

• Shrimp and Ginger Fritters: Place the breadcrumbs and coconut milk together in a bowl, and set aside.
• Place the shrimp meat, ginger, cilantro, egg and fish sauce into a food processor bowl, and pulse until the mixture is combined.
• It is important not to over-mix or otherwise it will turn into a paste!
• Add the breadcrumbs, which by now should have absorbed all the coconut milk, and pulse until just blended.
• Heat the vegetable oil over high heat, or to 350 degrees F (180 C) in a deep-fryer.
• Drop rounded tablespoons of the mixture into the hot oil, and cook until golden brown on all sides, about 2 minutes.
• Do this in batches.
• As the fritters cook, remove from the oil with a slotted spoon, drain on kitchen paper, and keep warm in a low oven.
• Sweet Chili Dipping Sauce: Place all ingredients in a blender and whizz until blended and sugar is dissolved.
• Serve in a small bowl (it yields 1 cup) to accompany the Asian Shrimp and Ginger Fritters.
