Ingredients:

14 ounces abalone

1 large egg, lightly beaten

1/4 cup sour cream

2 tablespoons minced red bell pepper

2 tablespoons minced red onion

2 tablespoons minced seedless cucumber

1 tablespoon chopped fresh chives

1 teaspoon grated lime rind

1 1/2 teaspoons grated lemon rind

2 1/2 teaspoons grated orange rind

1 teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon ground coriander

1 teaspoon old bay seasoning

1/4 teaspoon freshly ground white pepper

2 cups cornbread crumbs

1 tablespoon fresh lime juice

1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice

2 tablespoons fresh orange juice

2 cups panko breadcrumbs

canola oil

dill sauce

Directions:

1. Place abalone in a food processor, and pulse until finely chopped. Transfer abalone to a bowl; add egg and next 5 ingredients. Stir in lime rind and next 7 ingredients. Combine citrus juices. Slowly add juice until mixture is slightly wet but still holds together. Cover and chill at least 1 hour.
2. Form chilled mixture into 10 balls (golf ball size); lightly roll in panko breadcrumbs. Flatten balls to form 1/2-inch-thick patties.
3. Pour oil into a cast-iron skillet to a depth of 1 inch; heat to 375º. Fry patties, in batches, 3 to 4 minutes on each side or until golden brown. Remove from pan, and drain on paper towels. Transfer to a baking sheet, and keep warm in a 200º oven. Repeat procedure with remaining patties. Serve with Dill Sauce.
4. *Asian food stores carry panko breadcrumbs.
