Ingredients

• 500 grams Skinless fish fillets (e.g., cod, tilapia)
• 1 Medium onion, finely chopped
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped
• 1 tablespoon Fresh dill, chopped
• 1 Egg white
• 80 grams Whole wheat breadcrumbs
• 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon Paprika
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 0 Olive oil spray

Directions

Step 1

Begin by placing the fish fillets in a pot with enough water to cover them. Bring to a simmer over medium heat. Poach the fish for about 5-7 minutes or until fully cooked and opaque. Drain the water and set the fish aside to cool slightly.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, crumble the cooked fish fillets using your hands or a fork, ensuring there are no large pieces.

Step 3

Add the finely chopped onion, parsley, dill, egg white, breadcrumbs, lemon juice, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper to the crumbled fish.

Step 4

Mix the ingredients thoroughly until everything is well combined and the mixture holds together when formed into a ball.

Step 5

Shape the mixture into 8 equally sized patties, each about 1.5 cm thick.

Step 6

Preheat a non-stick frying pan over medium heat and lightly spray with olive oil.

Step 7

Cook the fish patties in the pan for about 3-4 minutes on each side or until golden brown and heated through. Avoid overcrowding the pan; cook in batches if necessary.

Step 8

Remove the patties from the pan and let them rest on a plate lined with a paper towel to absorb any excess oil.

Step 9

Serve warm with a side of salad, steamed vegetables, or use in sandwiches with your choice of accompaniments.
