Description

These vibrant Thai-style fish cakes offer a perfect balance of spicy, sweet, and savory flavors. Made with firm white fish fillets blended into a smooth paste, they are enriched with aromatic red curry paste, fresh spring onions, and a zesty kick from lemon juice and fresh chilies. The addition of green beans adds a pleasant crunch, while fresh coriander provides a bright, herbal finish. Shallow-fried until golden and crisp on the outside, they remain tender and juicy within. Serve these hearty patties with a drizzle of sweet chili sauce and lemon wedges for a refreshing contrast. Ideal as an appetizer, a light lunch, or a flavorful side dish, this recipe brings the authentic taste of Southeast Asian street food to your home kitchen with minimal fuss.

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Line an oven tray with baking paper and set aside.
  2. Place firm white fish fillets, red curry paste, soft fresh breadcrumbs, coarsely chopped spring onions, fish sauce, and lemon juice in a food processor.
  3. Process the mixture until completely smooth and well combined.
  4. Transfer the fish paste to a large mixing bowl.
  5. Add chopped green beans, fresh coriander, and finely chopped deseeded red chilies to the bowl; stir gently to combine.
  6. Wet your hands with water to prevent sticking, then roll heaped tablespoons of the mixture into 16 balls.
  7. Flatten each ball slightly to form small cakes or patties.
  8. Place the prepared cakes on the lined tray.
  9. Heat vegetable oil in a large frying pan over high heat.
  10. Shallow-fry the fish cakes in two batches, cooking for about 1 minute on each side until golden and cooked through.
  11. Drain the fried cakes on paper towels to remove excess oil.
  12. Serve immediately with sweet chili sauce, lemon wedges, and extra coriander sprigs.
