Steps

1. In a mixing bowl, combine the shrimp, minced garlic, chili paste, soy sauce, sesame oil, chopped green onion, breadcrumbs, egg, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined.
2. Form the mixture into two patties, about 1.5 cm thick.
3. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add a little oil. Once hot, place the patties in the skillet and cook for 4-5 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and cooked through.
