Fish patties with lemon
Description
This recipe won't take much time. Preheat the oven to 200 degrees. Grease two baking sheets with 1/2 tablespoon of oil. Place tilapia fillets on the sheets and season with salt and pepper. Bake until cooked through, 10 to 15 minutes. Let cool completely, then pat dry with paper towels. Using a fork, flake the fish into small pieces. In a large bowl, mix together eggs, mayonnaise, parsley, lemon juice, and horseradish. Add to the fish along with 1/2 cup of crackers; season with salt and pepper. Place the remaining 1 cup of crackers on a plate. Form the mixture into 16 patties, using about 1/4 cup for each. Gently coat each patty in cracker crumbs. Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Place 8 patties in the skillet and cook until golden brown, 4 to 6 minutes per side. Repeat with the remaining oil and patties. Serve hot with tartar sauce, if desired.
