**Fish Cakes BBC**
**Ingredients:**
– 1 lb white fish fillets (such as cod or haddock), cooked and flaked
– 2 cups mashed potatoes
– 1/2 cup breadcrumbs
– 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
– 1 teaspoon lemon zest
– 1/2 teaspoon paprika
– Salt and pepper to taste
– 1 egg, beaten
– Flour, for coating
– Oil, for frying
**Instructions:**
1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked and flaked fish fillets with the mashed potatoes, breadcrumbs, chopped parsley, lemon zest, paprika, salt, and pepper. Mix everything together until well combined.
2. Shape the mixture into small patties, about the size of your palm. You can make them as thick or thin as you prefer, depending on your taste.
3. Dip each fish cake in the beaten egg, ensuring it is evenly coated. This will help the flour to stick to the cakes.
4. Coat each fish cake with flour, shaking off any excess. This will give the fish cakes a crispy exterior when fried.
5. In a large skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat. Once the oil is hot, carefully place the fish cakes into the skillet, being sure not to overcrowd the pan. Cook in batches if necessary.
6. Fry the fish cakes for about 3-4 minutes on each side or until they are golden brown and crispy. Make sure to flip them gently to avoid breaking them.
7. Once cooked, transfer the fish cakes to a plate lined with paper towels to absorb any excess oil.
8. Serve the Fish Cakes BBC hot, with a side of tartar sauce or a squeeze of fresh lemon juice. These fish cakes are perfect for lunch or dinner, and they pair wonderfully with a crisp green salad or some steamed vegetables.
Enjoy these Fish Cakes BBC as a delightful way to incorporate more seafood into your meals. They are simple to make, packed with flavor, and are sure to become a family favorite in no time.
