Thai Fishcakes With Sweet Chilli Sauce Recipes

Steps:

• Put the salmon, white fish and squid into a food processor, then whizz until smooth. Add the chilli paste and pulse until well mixed. Place all the other ingredients, except the oil, into a large bowl. Add the fish mixture, then knead together for 5 mins until smooth and elastic.
• Shape into small flat discs about 5cm across. Heat a few cms oil in a wok until it shimmers, then fry the fishcakes in batches for 2-3 mins until golden. Drain on kitchen paper. Can be chilled for up to 1 day, then reheated in a hot oven for 5 mins.
• For the chilli sauce, place the vinegar, sugar, 2 tbsp water and the whole chillies in a small saucepan, then bring to the boil. Simmer for 15 mins, then remove from the heat. Place in a food processor and blend until smooth. Strain, saving 1 tsp chilli, then stir in the saved chilli and leave to cool. Will keep in the fridge for up to 1 week. Serve fishcakes with the chilli sauce, cucumber and peanuts.

Steps:

• Tip the fish into a food processor with the egg, curry paste, fish sauce and cornflour, then blitz until smooth. Tip the mixture into a bowl and stir in the lime zest and green beans, then shape into 8 fish cakes.
• Heat a little oil in a large non-stick frying pan, then cook the fish cakes (in batches) for a couple of mins each side until firm and cooked through.
• While the fish cakes are cooking, stir the lime juice into the chilli sauce to make a dressing. Pile salad onto plates, top with the fish cakes and drizzle with a little dressing.
