Instructions
 

Curry

  • Place a saucepan over medium heat. Add the oil and cook the onions for 3-5 minutes until soft. Add the potatoes and carrots. Add 2 3/4 cups water, or according to package directions. Bring to a simmer and for 15 minute or until the vegetables are tender.
  • Add the curry roux and mix to combine. Simmer for 5 minutes and serve hot.

Shrimp Croquette

  • Place the potatoes in a pot of cold water and place over high heat. Bring to a boil and let it cook until the potatoes are soft and can be easily pierced with a knife. Drain and once cool enough to handle, mash with a ricer or potato masher.
  • In a pan, heat the oil and once hot, cook the onions for 3 minutes. Add the shrimp and cook just until the shrimp is cooked through. Set aside and allow to cool.
  • Mix the shrimp with the mashed potatoes. Divide into 8 pieces and shape into patties. Refrigerate for 30 minutes.
  • Before frying, set a dredging station with flour, whisked eggs, and panko in separate bowls. dredge the patties in the flour, egg, then panko. Repeat. Heat the oil in a saucepan over medium high heat. Once hot, fry the patties until golden brown on both sides. Drain and keep warm.

Fish Stick Hand Roll

  • Cut a sheet of seaweed in half, widthwise. Heat the fish sticks according to package directions. Once cooked, take one piece of seaweed and with the rough side facing up, spread the sushi rice on the left third of the seaweed. Place two fish sticks on the rice.
  • Fold the bottom left corner over to create a cone shape. Keep rolling until a cone is formed. Place a piece of rice at the corner to seal it together.

Putting it Together

  • Arrange the curry, hand roll, croquette, and sliced spam on a dinner tray.
