The Easiest Fish Cakes You'll Ever Make !

These delicious Fish Cakes are great served with a squeeze of lemon juice

This is one of my Mum’s recipes which she got from a South African magazine (not sure which one ?) some time ago.

It really is a very simple (yet tasty !) recipe and these fish cakes can also be frozen after cooking & then simply reheated before use again.

They also make a great toddler supper 'stand-by' for busy nights & they are much healthier than any of those awful processed fish cakes you buy in the frozen food section of your local supermarket !


Easiest Fish Cakes Ever

2 slices day old white Bread
Water
500 gm Hake (or similar fish), cooked & flaked
1 Onion, chopped
1 large Egg
Salt & Pepper to taste
Finely chopped Parsley
Oil for frying

Soak the bread in enough water to completely saturate it. Mix with the remaining ingredients and shape into balls. Flatten slightly and lightly fry in heated oil until done. (This recipe serves 6.)
