Curried Shrimp Cakes

Curried Shrimp Cakes

These Curried Shrimp Cakes were inspired by my love of crabcakes and my husband’s distaste for crab (Right? Who doesn’t like crab?!). Well, I was pleasantly surprised with this creation! If you are not a curry fan, change up the spices for a different twist. This dish screams summertime and I hope your friends and family agree!
