1. I love fish cakes 2. I love lime leaf 3. I love cucumbers in vinegar 4. Now I'm hungry, and it's nearly 11 o'clock at night! Kindred indeed :-) Namaste! You have my five once again.


I simply love all of this!


Nice!


I cannot wait to try this one. So yummy!


Hi there, I made these the other day and they were so good! I made some changes. I used curry powder instead of curry paste, to reduce the spicyness a little. I also added a tbsp. of Fish sauce and a tbsp. of chopped cilantro to the fish cake mix. I added a little shredded fresh ginger and garlic to the cucumber salsa. Added 2 of my pictures under your main one. Thanks for a great recipe!
