Homemade Fishcakes Recipe - British Style

fish

🥗Healthier: canned tuna

💰Cheaper: surimi

Canned tuna is often more affordable and can be a healthier option.

potatoes

🥗Healthier: sweet potatoes

💰Cheaper: mashed potatoes

Sweet potatoes add nutrients and a different flavor profile.

bread crumbs

🥗Healthier: ground oats

💰Cheaper: crushed crackers

Ground oats provide a gluten-free option while maintaining texture.

Boil potatoes with a touch of salt until soft.

Drain and mash the potatoes without adding anything.

Melt butter in a pot, then add onions, salt, pepper, and turmeric, cooking gently.

Add the white fish fillet to the pot and cook for 4-5 minutes, breaking it down with a spoon.

Add chopped flat leaf parsley to the mixture and turn off the heat.

Mix the fish mixture with the mashed potatoes until evenly combined.

Form the mixture into tablespoon-sized balls and coat them in flour and breadcrumbs.

Heat sunflower oil in a deep fryer until hot.

Carefully drop the fish cakes into the hot oil and deep fry until golden brown, about a few minutes.

Remove the fish cakes and drain on paper towels.
