I just watched the Danish film The Hunt on Netflix with mixed emotions. It’s not exactly a horror film — I’m not a fan of horror films — but if this movie doesn’t make you realize that you’re a hair’s width from peril, nothing will. With great casting, acting and cinematography, it’s a meaningful story about human nature but a heartbreakingly sad tale of maddening injustice. The Hunt brings to mind George Orwell‘s Animal Farm. You may not realize that you know the main character, Mads Mikkelson, as Casino Royale‘s Bond villain or TV’s Hannibal.
This quick and delicious recipe for Chipotle Tuna Potato Cakes will leave you plenty of time for binge watching.

Hi holly
I just made these flowed the directions exactly
I found it was difficult to bind them- probably needed a bit of panko and also it made barely 5 patties
Did u make them tiny?
Just wandering and where did u get the dip?
Jittery Cook says
Mine were dry enough, maybe from draining the tuna well and potatoes were dry. I did make them small and flat. If they were wet they dried in the oven. Sauce is sold at IGA in CSL.
