  cakes abot 1 to 2 inches in diameter. Carefully coat them with the
  dried bread crumbs. Heat a large skillet or saute pan with 1/2 inch
  of vegetable oil over medium heat and fry some of the cakes until
  golden brown on both sides. Place in a 200 degree oven to keep warm.
  Repeat until all cakes are fried. Serve warm with Creole
  honry-mustard sauce. Makes 24 cakes. Serves 12 as an appetizer.
  
  THE SAUCE: In a small nonreactive saucepan over medium heat, heat the
  oil and saute the peppercorns, pepper and shallots for about 3
  minutes, or until the shallots are translucent. Add the white wine
  and simmer until the wine has almost completely evaporated. Let cool.
  Add the remaining ingredients and check the seasoning. Makes about 1
