Bangus (milkfish) fritters, v. 2

The recipe for the bangus (fritters) is not new. It might be, though, for those who haven’t gone through the archives of this blog. Bangus Fritters was one of the earliest recipes that I posted, on May 21, 2003. Imagine that. Seems like another lifetime ago. 
What is new is the recipe for the sauce. It’s still made basically from garlic and mayo but I added a few other ingredients to give it a very oriental twist. I tell you, the sauce simply perks up the fritters. The spiciness is subtle but, overall, the sauce is wonderfully pungent and quite intense.

For the sauce, you will need:
1/2 tsp. of finely grated garlic
1/2 tsp. of finely grated ginger
a pinch of chili pepper flakes
1/2 c. of mayonnaise
2 tbsps. of water or unsalted fish broth
2 tbsps. of sesame seed oil
1 tbsp. of finely sliced scallions (onion leaves)
patis
Place all the ingredients in a bowl, except the patis. Use a wire whisk to mix everything together until smooth. Season with just enough patis for the balance that you prefer.
If you prefer a sauce with the consistency of a dip, use more mayonnaise.
Place the sauce in a covered container and chill for at least 10 minutes to allow the flavors to develop. Then, serve with your bangus fritters.
