FISH CAKES WITH CAPER-PARSLEY SAUCE
"I grew up in the middle of Croatia, near Zagreb, where the cuisine is very heavy - lots of meat and potatoes," writes Snjezana Hercigonja of Raleigh, North Carolina. "But when I was young, it was customary to vacation on the Mediterranean coast in the summer, where you go to the market every day to see what's good, and everything is really fresh and light. Even the fat is good, since it's usually olive oil. This recipe is based on dishes from that region." Make these instead of crab cakes for a starter or light lunch - they're fantastic.
