i found this cookbook in a local bookstore and thought it would be fun to find recipes of foods popular in other countries. this recipe was easier to make with the little one so we worked on it together.
k got to mash, fork, juice, mix and scoop. all good fun! little one also LOVED eating these fishcakes.
UPDATE: recently i put together a binder of recipes k has cooked so far and looking at the picture, my little one said – this one, i was talking about this one [recently], i want to have it again!
