Fish cakes







I have made shrimp and catfish cakes more time than I can remember. In this case I made cakes from shrimp and cod. It may surprise you to know that, after pulsing 6 oz. of each together in the food processor, no other additives were necessary, just some seasoning - salt, pepper and a bit of cayenne. The fishes are very sticky and hold together as "burgers" very well. A few minutes per side in a saute pan with olive oil and butter and you've got a swell thing.

  2. I love the idea of shrimp and cod - much fresher without all the filler of potato and flour - perfect for summer - very nice
