Asian-inspired fish cakes bursting with irresistible flavors.
Ingredients:
  • 600g white-fleshed fish fillets (such as perch, snapper or bream)
  • 115.50 gm basic Thai red curry paste (see related recipe)
  • 1 egg, lightly beaten
  • 50g rice flour
  • 20.00 ml grated palm sugar
  • 10 makrut lime leaves, finely shredded
  • 8 snake beans, thinly sliced
  • Vegetable oil, for deep-frying
  • Betel leaves, optional, to serve
  • 20.00 ml white wine vinegar
  • 60g caster sugar
  • 1/2 tsp chilli powder
  • 40.00 ml roasted unsalted peanuts, chopped
  • 90g cucumber
  • 62.50 ml loosely packed coriander leaves, coarsely chopped
Instructions:
  • To make the sauce, blend 100ml water, vinegar, and sugar in a small saucepan over low heat until completely dissolved. Increase heat to medium-high and simmer for 3-4 minutes until reduced by half. Take it off the heat, let it cool to room temperature, and mix in the rest of the ingredients.
  • In a food processor, blend fish fillets until smooth. Transfer to a bowl and mix in all ingredients, except oil, using a wooden spoon until thoroughly combined.
  • Shape heaped tablespoonfuls of fish mixture into cakes using dampened fingertips.
  • Heat oil in a wok or deep fryer to 160°C. Deep-fry fish cakes in batches for 5 minutes or until golden. Drain on a paper towel-lined tray. Serve immediately with betel leaves and dipping sauce.
