Thai Fish Cakes

These low fat fish cakes are so healthy and amazingly tasty. You will throw them together in a few minutes and can use any white fish.

You don’t even have to make a dip as you can use sweet chilli sauce or so what I did (though they won’t be as low fat) and throw together a sweet chilli mayonnaise by mixing 1 part sweet chilli sauce to 3 parts mayonnaise. I am also using a Sweet Soya Bean Sauce (Kicap Lemak Manis) as a dip which can be tough to find. I got mine in an Asian store in Clonakilty. It can be a little pricey as well, a lot more so if you manage to find it in a supermarket.

For a gluten free version check the labels of the sauces and use Gram Flour instead of flour to coat them.

Stick everything in the food processor and blend to a paste.

    Sounds yum! Can I skip the frying part and straight into oven for extra healthy option?

    1. No, you need to seal them on the pan first or they will fall apart.

    What temperature should the oven be at? Unless I have totally missed it

    1. Pre-heat your oven to 180C or GM 4.
      My apologies, we left out that step in the move from the old site when we copied the recipe over.
      I have edited it now to include the step. Thank you for pointing it out to me.
