Рецепт Yellow Corn Pancakes with Shrimp/Scallops and Mango Jalapena Crema
This dish is adapted from one in Bobby Flay's Mesa Grill cookbook. This is an appetizer that I adapted from the book. My daughter recently ate at the restaurant in Las Vegas and raved about the food so I decided to get the cookbook and play with some of the dishes.
The original called for using smoked salmon. Since I served this to my brother and his wife neither of which care for cold smoked salmon I changed the protein to shrimp and scallops. I also used Jalapeno pepper instead of Serrano as my wife can't tolerate too much heat.
The pancakes freeze quite well and the mango crema can be made ahead time so much of the dish can be done early in the day. I made crème fraiche the day before from scratch but Mexican Crema or sour cream will work fine as well.
By adding more protein the dish could easily double as a main course.
For a wine we had Jacuzzi Family Vineyards 2010 Carneros Tocai Friulano which has bright acidity and flavors of mandarin orange, lime and pineapple.

Инструкции
- In a medium bowl, combine the cornmeal, flour, baking powder, salt and honey. In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg, milk and butter. Add the dry ingredients to the wet, mix until just combined.
- Heat a large nonstick pan over high heat and spray with nonstick spray. Working in batches drop the batter by spoonfuls to make 3" pancakes. Cook until nicely browned, 1-2 minutes per side. Wipe out pan and repeat. You want to end up with 12 pancakes. Keep warm covered with foil or in warm oven.
- Combine the crème fraiche , Jalapeno, mango and red onion. Season with salt and pepper. Cover and refrigerate until cold.
- Pat shrimp and scallops dry. Season with Ancho chile powder. Melt Ghee in sauté pan. Cook shrimp and scallops over high heat 1-2 minutes per side. Do not overcook.
- Place 3 pancakes each plate, spread mango crema over each pancake and stack. Top with a little more crema. Place shrimp and scallops on each plate. Garnish with chopped cilantro, lime wedges and Mango Chipolte Sauce/Glaze
