CAJUN SEAFOOD CAKES



Cajun Seafood Cakes image

Any fish variety will work well in this recipe. The fish, shrimp, and scallops may be steamed, broiled, or placed in a saucepan with a bit of water and white wine, covered, and cooked slowly for about 10 minutes, until opaque and cooked through. You may substitute canned tuna or splurge with fresh crab in this recipe. If you prefer, make these cakes without shellfish. Try one on a bun with Creole Remoulade Sauce Recipe #373985 or resting against a bed of paste with marinara sauce. Found recipe in, "The Whole Foods Market Cookbook."

CAROLINA FISH CAKES



Carolina Fish Cakes image

These fish cakes are great with tartar or cocktail sauce or a simple squeeze of fresh lemon or lime. For a change of pace add a bit of chili powder, cilantro and jalapeno or a teaspoon of Cajun spice. Nice served with boiled red potatoes and a spinach salad. This recipe has two cooking options: you can fry the cakes or bake them -- it's up to you!
