Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams White fish fillets (e.g., cod, haddock, or tilapia)
- 100 grams Panko breadcrumbs
- 30 grams Fresh cilantro, finely chopped
- 1 tablespoon Fresh ginger, grated
- 2 Scallions, finely sliced
- 1 Egg, beaten
- 1 tablespoon Soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon Lime zest
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil, for greasing
Instructions
Preheat your broiler (or grill) to high and line a baking sheet with aluminum foil. Lightly grease the foil with olive oil.
Pat the fish fillets dry with paper towels and cut them into small chunks.
In a food processor, add the fish chunks, grated ginger, cilantro, scallions, soy sauce, lime zest, salt, and pepper. Pulse until the mixture is coarsely blended but not pureed.
Transfer the fish mixture to a large mixing bowl. Add the panko breadcrumbs and beaten egg. Mix gently with your hands or a spatula until just combined.
Scoop about 1/4 cup of the mixture and shape it into a patty about 1-inch thick. Repeat with the remaining mixture to form around 8 fishcakes.
Arrange the fishcakes on the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space between each one.
Place the baking sheet under the broiler and cook for 5 minutes. Flip the fishcakes carefully and broil for another 3-5 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.
Remove the fishcakes from the oven and let them rest for 2 minutes before serving.
Serve warm with a squeeze of fresh lime juice and your favorite dipping sauce or side salad.
