Pat-A-Cake, Pat-A-Curry-Fishcake

Mother was quite into food experimentation back in the day. A dish that she picked up from a friend was curried potato cakes. Spicy, savory fried cakes that were great as snacks or as a side dish.

Remembering flavors from that point in time here' s a seafood variation of that vegetarian dish.

Ingredients: (good for 6 healthy eaters)

  • 500 grams fish fillet (skinless)
  • 1 cube S&B Golden Curry (#5 heat)
  • 1 egg
  • 1 medium white onion
  • 1 tsp garlic, minced
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • cornstarch for dusting
  • oil for frying
Procedure:
  1. Put the first 5 ingredients in a food processor and pulse it til everything is well blended. Don't puree.
  2. Transfer to a bowl and season to taste.
  3. Dust your hands with a little cornstarch, while you heat oil in a frying pan.
  4. Form a patty from 2 tbsp of the mix and transfer palm to palm to form a patty.
  5. Fry over medium fire til golden brown.
This goes well with Sriracha Sauce or some guacamole and salsa (see recipe here) on the side.

**Guacamole Recipe:

  1. Half, core and remove skin of one ripe avocado.
  2. Mash with a fork and spoon in about 3 tbsp of our homemade salsa.
  3. Season with salt to taste and enjoy!
