Cheesy Fish Cakes With Spring Onions
- 350 g cod fish fillets
- 75 g breadcrumbs (fresh white)
- spring onion
- 100 g cheese, grated
- 5 ml capers, chopped finely (optional)
- 4 pinches chili powder
- 1 egg
- 1 egg yolk
- flour
- butter (for frying)
- salt
- If necessary skin the cod fillets (if using frozen fish this is much easier done before thawing) and mince or chop in a food processor.
- Put in a bowl with the breadcrumbs.
- Chop the spring onions finely, using as much of the green stalk as possible, and add to the fish and breadcrumbs together with the grated cheese and capers.
- Season with salt and the chilli powder and mix all together thoroughly with a wooden spoon.
- Whisk the egg and egg yolk and stir into the mixture.
- With well-floured hands, shape the mixture into fairly small fish cakes.
- Heat a good blob of butter in a large frying pan.
- Fry the fish cakes (you will probably have to do them in two batches) over a medium heat for 5 - 8 minutes on each side until golden brown, turning carefully once with a fish slice.
- Transfer to a dish, pour over any extra butter from the pan the serve.
- (if necessary they will keep hot in a low oven perfectly well for an hour or so).
