Fish Cakes

Recipe

Cook 500gm (1.1 lb) cod and flake with a fork. Mix with 2 medium size boiled potatoes + 10gm corriander (cilantro) leaves + 6 chopped green chilies + 1 finely chopped onion + twist of lime juice + 1 beaten egg + salt to taste. Form into balls and then flatten into cakes. I formed 17 cakes with this quantity. Keep the cakes in the freezer for 20 min.

 

Beat 2 eggs until frothy. Place a layer of bread crumbs on a plate. Roll the cakes in the crumbs and then dip them in the egg. Fry until golden.

 

I'm not too happy with the results... absorbed too much oil and not light enough. Perhaps too little potato or the mix got too compacted.

 

Any suggestions are welcome
