Snapper Cakes image

Saw this recipe on a television show being made and just had to try these. They have egg or breadcrumbs, they are all snapper and vegetables. They hold together quite well and a very tasty. The original recipe calls for pan frying but I lightly oiled an oven tray and used in the oven. I think the B.B.Q. would be great! They could also be made smaller and would make great appetizers.

I'm not a fan of tartar sauce, so I served these snapper cakes with a lemon-dill sauce instead. It was delicious!

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my snapper cakes turned out mushy. I think I might have overcooked them.
