Easy Homemade Fishcakes
Delicious and easy to make, a winning combination!
Delicious homemade fishcakes that are actually a lot easier to make than you might think. You can use any fish you like for the mix, in this recipe we’re going to use Salmon for the vitamin-D boost but you could easily substitute for Mackerel, Tuna, Crabmeat or anything else you fancy. These quantities will make you between six to eight fishcakes, enough for two or three people as a main meal with an accompanying salad.
Ingredients:
300g of flaked organic salmon.
1 small red onion.
2 cloves of garlic.
1 hand full of chopped basil.
2 tablespoons of Dijon mustard.
2 large organic eggs.
2 tablespoons of spelt flour.
Seasoning to taste.
Cooking oil of choice (coconut, butter etc)
Method:
Firstly beat the eggs and flour together in a mixing bowl. Then dice the onion and garlic with the basil and mix it all together in the bowl with the eggs and season. Add in the flaked fish and combine it thoroughly in the mixing bowl.
Heat your skillet over a medium heat with a generous measure of your chosen cooking oil and get ready for the fun bit!
Roll up your sleeves - it’s time to get in there with your hands! Mould the mixture into patties approximately an inch thick and three inches across. Place them in the skillet and fry them for 3 to 4 minutes until they are turning golden brown on the bottoms (you don’t want to try turning them too early as they may crumble). Use a spatula to turn them over and fry off for another 3 to 4 minutes to finish. Serve hot with a slice of lemon.
Once cooked and cooled these fishcakes will keep in the fridge for several days and make fantastic snacks and packed lunches so be sure to make plenty!
