From the "too-good-not-to-share" category! We adapted this most amazing recipe from allrecipes.com. Since we are too lazy to batter and fry our own fish, we pick up some fillets from the fish place and break them into taco-sized pieces. We also prefer flour tortillas to corn (most of us, anyway.) To save even more time, a bag of slaw mix from the grocery store is ideal for the topping, and is more colorful as well. Word to the wise: a full teaspoon of cayenne makes the sauce very, very spicy! For the more timid, a 1/4 teaspoon is plenty. Here's our amended recipe, with a link to the original below:
Fish Tacos
1/2 cup plain yogurt
1/2 cup
mayonnaise
1 lime, juiced
1 jalapeno
pepper, minced
1 teaspoon
minced capers
1/2 teaspoon
dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon
ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon
dried dill weed
1 teaspoon
ground cayenne pepper, or to taste
Fried Fish
Flour or corn
tortillas
½ head of cabbage,
chopped, or slaw mix
Chopped cilantro
Pico de Gallo,

cumin, dill, and cayenne.
