Equipment

  • Large frying pan
  • Large mixing bowl
  • 3 shallow bowls

Ingredients

  • 4 spring onions finely chopped
  • 1 garlic clove crushed
  • Cooking oil for frying
  • 500 g cooked potato mashed
  • 1 tbsp chilli flakes
  • 210 g tinned salmon drained
  • Zest of half a lemon
  • Salt and pepper to season

For the coating:

  • 2 tbsp plain flour
  • 1 egg beaten
  • 2 tbsp cold water
  • 100 g breadcrumbs
  • Cooking oil for frying

Method

  • Gently fry your spring onions and garlic in oil/butter for two minutes over a medium heat. Remove from the heat and place in a large bowl, leaving to cool slightly.
  • Once cool, add the rest of the fishcake ingredients. Mix well using your hands, then shape into patties. 
  • Next, set up your ‘fishcake prep line’: three bowls, one with flour, the next with egg and cold water and the third with breadcrumbs.
  • Coat the fishcake in plain flour, then dip in the egg. Finally, coat in breadcrumbs. Repeat with the other fishcakes, then chill in the fridge until you’re ready to cook.
  • Heat the oil in a large frying pan and shallow-fry the fishcakes for four to five minutes per side, until golden brown. Drain on kitchen paper, then serve with simple mint or carrot salad.
