Homemade Shrimp Cakes

Shrimp crackers are chewy and tasty, but also very nutritious. Mixing them with minced meat can enrich the flavor and make the texture thicker. My youngest son doesn’t like eating shrimps, so in order to ensure that he doesn’t miss out on this delicious and nutritious food, I have to be a bit more thoughtful. Shrimp cakes can be obtained by fighting for them at home! 😂
