Delicious and inspired little patties! I served this as a main course, although I originally intended them as appetizers. They can go either way. Made as directed and loved how all the flavors came together. Since DH only eats iceberg lettuce (I personally would have preferred the butter lettuce!) and since I served as a main course, I shredded the lettuce. Oh, and I did use the egg since I'm an egg person! Thanks, BlueMoon DownUnder! Made for <b>PRMR</b>.

July 2008 update: VERY happy to be back on Zaar after about a two year absence due to having had no internet connection at home, and having been too unwell for a time so that getting re-connected wasn't even a priority!
<br>
<br>And really looking forward to getting back into the Zaar world and connecting again with the many wonderful people I knew before, and new people, of course!
