Prepare the fish by removing skin and bones, then chop finely.

Mix the chopped fish with bread crumbs in a large bowl.

Add finely chopped onion, garlic, parsley, coriander, cumin, paprika, and chili powder to the bowl.

Crack an egg into the mixture and add lemon juice, salt, and black pepper.

Combine all ingredients thoroughly until well mixed.

Shape the mixture into small cakes or patties.

Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat until shimmering.

Carefully add the fish cakes to the skillet, cooking in batches if necessary.

Fry each side until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes per side.

Transfer cooked cakes to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.

Serve warm with a side of lemon wedges and dipping sauce.

Garnish with fresh herbs if desired.
