Shrimp cutlets
Description
The recipe won't take much time. I suggest getting better acquainted with Japanese cuisine and preparing shrimp patties using this recipe. These patties are best served with Japanese "Tonkatsu" sauce, and I recommend serving rice as a side dish. If you have all the necessary ingredients, definitely give it a try. Good luck! Serve hot.
