Ingredients
- 500 grams White fish fillets (e.g., cod, haddock, or tilapia)
- 100 grams Panko breadcrumbs
- 30 grams Fresh cilantro, finely chopped
- 1 tablespoon Fresh ginger, grated
- 2 Scallions, finely sliced
- 1 Egg, beaten
- 1 tablespoon Soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon Lime zest
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil, for greasing
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your broiler (or grill) to high and line a baking sheet with aluminum foil. Lightly grease the foil with olive oil.
Step 2
Pat the fish fillets dry with paper towels and cut them into small chunks.
Step 3
In a food processor, add the fish chunks, grated ginger, cilantro, scallions, soy sauce, lime zest, salt, and pepper. Pulse until the mixture is coarsely blended but not pureed.
Step 4
Transfer the fish mixture to a large mixing bowl. Add the panko breadcrumbs and beaten egg. Mix gently with your hands or a spatula until just combined.
Step 5
Scoop about 1/4 cup of the mixture and shape it into a patty about 1-inch thick. Repeat with the remaining mixture to form around 8 fishcakes.
Step 6
Arrange the fishcakes on the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space between each one.
Step 7
Place the baking sheet under the broiler and cook for 5 minutes. Flip the fishcakes carefully and broil for another 3-5 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.
Step 8
Remove the fishcakes from the oven and let them rest for 2 minutes before serving.
Step 9
Serve warm with a squeeze of fresh lime juice and your favorite dipping sauce or side salad.
