The Best Shrimp for Shrimp Cakes
To make some utterly delicious shrimp cakes we will roughly chop the shrimps so the best shrimps for this recipe would be either medium, large or Jumbo. You may even choose colossal.
As shrimp is the star ingredient in this easy patties recipe & the only main ingredient we will never agree to compromise with quality!
I would not choose the small shrimps because they don't have much flavor anyway.
Small shrimps should be your last resort.

Aioli, What's it anyway?
Aioli is a fancier Mayo!
Oh! yeah we are not talking here about the traditional labor intensive Mediterranean Aioli with olive oil & crushed garlic.
But a mayo that's jazzed up with something else to make it more fancy & regal.
And when this Aioli tastes finger licking good, what else to complain about?
I made this aioli sauce by whisking paprika, mustard paste, minced garlic & mayo. That's it, super tasty aioli that will make you lick off the bowl 😀

5 Tricks - Shrimp Patties Recipe
- For best results always roughly chop the shrimps. Pulsing them in a food processor won't give you the same results.
- Medium, Jumbo shrimps are the way to go.
- Oats flour used for binding the patties give best flavors.
- For extra kick add cayenne pepper, we love it!
- Pan sear them on medium low first & than on medium high for that charred look that's so irresistible!
How to Bake Shrimp Patties?
Follow the same recipe. Instead of pan searing the easy shrimp patties bake them in the oven.
Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil, spray oil. Than, place the shrimp patties leaving enough space between two patties. Spray or brush oil.
Bake them for 10 mins at 350 F on one side. Flip side and bake again for 7-8 mins at 350 F. Finally, broil at high for 2-3 mins each side.

Instructions
How to make the Shrimp Patties
- Begin by cleaning & rinsing the shrimps. If using frozen shrimps defrost them & bring them to room temperature.
- Chop the shrimps to small pieces.
- Add chopped parsley, mayo, dijon mustard paste, salt, paprika powder, eggs, chopped garlic, onion powder & Oats flour and give everything a good mix.
- Finally, add the parmesan cheese and mix everything well. If you feel the batter is too slimy add a bit more oats flour to bind it well.
- Heat your favorite skillet over medium low flame, brush oil or drizzle oil.
- In the meantime form patty shapes with a scoop of shrimp batter with the help of your palm (you may grease your palms for ease) or scoop out each patty with the help of a cookie scoop. Gently drop them on the hot pan & press them gently to flatten or give a patty shape.
- Flip sides, cook until golden over medium low or medium heat.
- When the patty is fully cooked give that char look and add more crispiness by searing them over medium high heat for a couple of mins (both sides).
- Serve hot!
How to make the Aioli
- In a clean bowl take mayo and add mustard paste, paprika, salt & chopped garlic. Mix well. Aioli is ready. Serve with the shrimp patties.
Notes
- For crispy outer layer & juicy interior fry the shrimp patties over medium low or medium heat first until fully cooked. Than, sear them over medium high heat for a couple of mins for that chared look.
- If the batter doesnot come together add little more oats flour, bit by bit until you reach the proper consistency.
- After rinsing the shrimps, dry them out with the help of paper kitchen towels.
