Thai fish cakes recipe


4 firm white fish fillets (I used flounder)
2 tablespoons cornflour
1 tablespoon fish sauce
3 teaspoons red curry paste (buy ready-made from supermarket)
1 beaten egg
some fresh coriander leaves (or you can add 2-3 chopped spring onions)
some chopped garlic chives (or you can use chopped green beans)
1. Squeeze excess water from the fish fillets. Process fish in food processor for 20 seconds.
2. Add cornflour, egg, red curry paste and process for another 15 seconds.
3. Transfer mixture into large bowl. Add chopped spring onions/garlic chives or chopped green beans and mix well. Using wet hands, form 2 tablespoons of mixture into flat patties.
4. Fry in a little oil - cook 4-5 patties at one time until dark golden brown on both sides. Place on paper towels to absorb excess oil.
5. I like to dip these in some store-bought thai sweet chilli sauce!!
