Method

  • Rinse and dry the cod and salmon fillets thoroughly.
  • Finely chop the fillets by hand and transfer to a mixing bowl.
  • Clean the chili and remove the seeds.
  • Mix together the finely chopped chili, ginger, garlic, coriander, and spring onion.
  • Add grated lime zest, sesame oil, cornstarch, and brown sugar.
  • Mix everything well with the chopped fish.
  • Rinse your hands in cold water before shaping the fish cakes.
  • Form the mixture into cakes about 5 cm in diameter and 1.5 cm thick. Let the cakes rest in the refrigerator for about 10 minutes before frying. This prevents the cakes from falling apart during cooking.
  • Ensure the cakes don't crumble during frying.
  • Heat oil in a frying pan and carefully fry the cakes until they are cooked through and golden brown.

Dipping Sauce

  • Squeeze the juice of a lime and add a bit of lime zest.
  • Finely chop the chili, spring onion, and fresh coriander, and mix well.
  • Add sweet chili sauce, soy sauce, and fish sauce.
  • Taste and adjust with a little sugar and fish sauce.
  • Serve the fish cakes with sauce, rice, salad, and lime.

Tip: The fish cakes can be prepared up to 24 hours in advance. Cover the dish tightly and store it in the refrigerator until ready to fry.
