SHRIMP BALLS or BOULETTES

Shrimp Balls or Boulettes

This recipe can also be used to prepare shrimp cakes. You can pan fry the cakes and serve them "hamburger" style on a bun. Or try serving the balls or patties with a remoulade sauce.


2 lbs raw shrimp, peeled and cut into small pieces
2 eggs
1 medium potato, boiled and mashed
½ cup green onions, chopped fine
½ cup fresh parsley, minced
4 toes garlic, minced
1 medium onion, minced
Salt and hot sauce to taste
Bread crumbs
Egg wash
Flour


Mix shrimp, eggs and potato in a bowl. Add finely chopped seasonings. Mix well. Add enough breadcrumbs until the mixture binds. Form into balls or cakes. Dust the cakes or balls in flour, dredge in egg wash and coat in bread crumbs. Fry in hot oil until golden brown. Drain. Serves 4.
