"Saw this recipe on a television show being made and just had to try these. They have no 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 baked in the oven. I think the B.B.Q. would be great! They could also be made smaller and would make great appetizers. Serve these with extra sweet chilli sauce or tartare sauce."

Original is 10-16 servings
