Thai Fish Cake

Step 1: To begin making the Thai Fish Cake recipe, make a paste of the fish fillets by placing it in a mixer jar till you reach a very fine minced texture

Step 2: Transfer to a bowl and set aside

Step 3: Now add egg, garlic paste, salt, galangal paste, spring onions, coriander leaves, birds eye chillies, thai fish sauce, thai red curry paste, lime juice, paprika into the mixer jar and  blend until smooth

Step 4: In a mixing bowl gently mix together this freshly ground paste with the fish paste

Step 5: Shape the fish cake mixture into small patties, by rolling them between your palms and slightly flattening them and lightly dust with cornflour

Step 6: Refrigerate for 15-30 minutes

Step 7: Heat the oil in a frying pan on medium-high heat and fry the fish cakes until crisp and brown, turning every time to cook evenly

Step 8: Remove from the oil using a slotted spoon and set aside to drain on kitchen paper

Step 9: Serve hot with a sweet chilli dip

Step 10: Serve Thai Fish Cake along with a hot cup of Masala Chai or Espresso Coffee for your tea time break
