👨🍳 Ohjeet
- 1
If using fresh fish, lightly steam or poach it until just cooked through. Let it cool slightly, then flake it into small pieces, removing any bones or skin. If using frozen fish, ensure it is fully thawed and patted dry.
- 2
In a food processor, combine the flaked fish, finely chopped onion, egg, breadcrumbs, dill, parsley, paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Pulse until the mixture is well combined but still has some texture; avoid over-processing into a paste.
- 3
If the mixture seems too wet to form patties, add a little more breadcrumbs. If using sesame seeds, spread them on a plate.
- 4
Wet your hands slightly to prevent sticking. Take about 2-3 tablespoons of the fish mixture and form it into a patty, about 1/2 inch thick. If using sesame seeds, gently press each patty into the seeds to coat both sides.
- 5
Heat about 1/4 inch of vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Carefully place the fish cakes in the hot oil, being careful not to overcrowd the pan. Fry for 4-5 minutes per side, until golden brown and cooked through.
- 6
Remove the fish cakes from the skillet and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil. Serve hot with a side salad, lemon wedges, or your favorite sauce.
