How to Make Deep Fried Shrimp Cakes Taud Man Goong

  1. Finely chop the shrimp and lard together until a paste forms using a food processor or by hand.
  2. Add salt, sugar, and breadcrumbs to the shrimp mixture. Mix thoroughly until well combined.
  3. Shape the mixture into small, flat patties (about 1-inch thick).
  4. Heat oil in a deep fryer or large, heavy-bottomed pot to 350°F (175°C).
  5. Carefully place the shrimp cakes into the hot oil, ensuring not to overcrowd the pot.
  6. Deep fry for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crispy.
  7. Remove the shrimp cakes from the oil and place them on a wire rack to drain excess oil.
  8. **For the Dipping Sauce:** In a small saucepan, combine vinegar and 1/2 cup sugar. Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring until sugar dissolves.
  9. Remove from heat and let the sauce cool completely.
  10. Stir in the chopped cucumber, carrots, chilies, and shallots.
  11. Serve the crispy shrimp cakes hot with the prepared dipping sauce.
