LEFTOVERS



We had a fush braai this weekend.
This is my attempt at fish cakes with the leftovers + a few garden ingredients.
The Major makes the best fish cakes.
These aren't bad.
They are nice and light not the type you might use when entering a shotput competition.

300g Potatoes mashed
150g White Flaky Fish
3 Tbsp Coriander Chopped
3 Tbsp Spring Onions Chopped
1 Red Chilli Finely Chopped and de-seeded
1 Egg
Grated Zest of 1 Lime
2 Tbsp Lemon Juice

Peel & boil your potatoes. Drain & Mash.
If you're using leftover fish, break up into small flakes otherwise steam first then break up
Chop up coriander, spring onions and chilli
Combine all the ingredients (you can just use a food processor if you want)
Add lime zest + lemon juice
Mix together
Add egg
Take about 2 tbsp of the mixture in your hand, roll into a ball, flatten into a patty.
Heat oil in pan. Fry till golden.
Serve with wedges of lime + a green salad

* The fish from the fishery is so fresh it swims in the door. The bonus is that they sms you when it arrives. Its worth signing up. Call them on 021 783 5382
