Cajun Cod Cakes And Tartar Sauce
From keni 5 years ago
- ~30min to make
- Serves 4-8
These fish cakes are easy to make and have just a hint of a kick to make them a lil different. Use presteamed/broiled fish and leftover mashed potatoes for best results. You can serve them as an appetizer or just double each in size and they make a nice light lunch or dinner.
