I made these salmon, rocket & chili fishcakes recipe just before Christmas. They were delicious, ideal for one of those evenings when you want something a bit fancy and comforting but healthy at the same time. I had them with rocket, cherry tomatoes & spring onion salad, to make them even more healthy.
No fried oil
The recipe is designed to avoid fried oil, but at the same time to create that little crust on top, so that makes these fishcakes tasty and pretty healthy at the same time.
You can use up your leftovers
Like most fishcakes they are made with leftover fish and potatoes, but can obviously cook the recipe from scratch. A packet of 2 salmon fillets cam make enough fishcakes for 4 people.
Make it a meal
Food combination sometimes counts more than the recipe itself. I would suggest having these fishcakes with a salad, like a rocket, cherry tomatoes spring onions salad, ( which will also reduce food waste as rocket is part of the fishcakes recipe), or any type of green like wilted spinach or green beans.
