SEAFOOD FRITTERS WITH MARMALADE DIPPING SAUCE image

I love seafood fritters with marmalade dipping sauce because when ever I make them they go flying off the plate and we can't ever make enough of them. They are finger food so that they are easy to eat at parties. If you don't want to use your fingers you can always use skewers or tooth picks too. These little nuggets are packed...
