Shrimp & Tater Flats

Here's a recipe I tried a while back. It was before I started this blog so I just wrote down my little experimental recipe and didn't take a picture of the food :( ... Oh well! Here's a picture of Nik instead - he's such a ham!

I'm 2 :)

Ingredients:

1) 1 medium potato, pealed & grated

2) 7-8 shrimp, thawed and finely diced

3) 1 egg

4) 2-3 tbsp plain bread crumbs

5) garlic salt and pepper for seasoning

6) butter for frying

Directions:

Mix potatoes, shrimp, egg and seasoning together. Divide the mix into 7 or 8 portions. Form each one into a flat cutlet, roll in dry breadcrumbs and fry in butter until golden brown. These look like flat tater tots - so I called them Shrimp & Tater Flats :) !! I served these with some marinara sauce. Turned out pretty good. Nik was "so-so" in his enthusiasm that day - but this was also the first time he had tasted shrimp. Since then, he's done pretty good with shrimp and seems to like them!! I'm going to try it again soon!
