Start by boiling the potato until tender, about 10 minutes, then mash it and set aside to cool.
Cut the fish fillets into chunks and roughly chop them in a food processor until finely minced (do not puree).
In a large mixing bowl, combine the minced fish, mashed potato, green onions, red bell pepper, garlic, parsley, black pepper, and paprika.
Add the egg to the mixing bowl and mix well until all the ingredients are thoroughly combined.
Shape the mixture into 8 equal-sized patties, placing them on a plate or tray.
Spread the panko breadcrumbs on a flat dish. Coat each fish cake with the breadcrumbs, pressing gently to adhere.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Fry the fish cakes in batches for about 3-4 minutes on each side or until golden brown and crispy.
Transfer the cooked fish cakes to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
Serve the low sodium crispy fried fish cakes hot with lemon wedges on the side.
