Fish cakes......the long version.

A good one for any fish you are a bit "over" or doesn't freeze then pan fry well.

I had some snapper fillets and some spuds.

Season all this well as you go.

Some water and milk and Kaffir lime leaves(just because I have them....if not add some lemon or lime or grapefruit rind)
Poach the fillets till just cooked threw.

Par boil the spuds and smash a few cloves of garlic in there...

Put spuds in oven to just brown and dry out a bit before mashing with a knob of butter.

Really rough mash.... so you know what you are eating.

Add some lemon/lime juice ,cracked pepper and smoked paprika.
Dice up a red onion and add.

Break up the snapper and add.

I had more fish than mash....dog was happy.

I didn't have any bread crumbs so toasted 3 bits of bread and whacked them in the kitchen wiz with a 1/4pkt salt and vinegar chips.

Mix was a little chunky to hold together well so I mixed an egg into it and then pattied up and coated in egg then the crumbs and left to set up.

Fry in a hot pan with oil and butter and rest in a warm oven till ready to serve.

I didn't have lots of things that could have gone in there....I also had lots of things that could go in there.
Key to being a good camp bitch is making the most of what you have.

What a bloody show off. Sick of eating Snapper aye :ORLY::D

Looks pretty tasty, I might try that when I catch those shitbag red cod in Winter

The chips idea for breadcrumbs is clever.

Bloody good mate! Honestly it’s hard to beat a good fish cake. Just one of those hearty meals that always hit the spot! & very versatile- can easily adapt to use up various bits & pieces from the fridge. The S&V chips idea is great too!

Well thought out feed, thanks for sharing
