  1. Form Patties:
    • Use your hands to form the mixture into small patties, about 2 to 3 inches in diameter. Place the patties on a plate or tray.
  2. Coat the Patties:
    • Dredge each patty in breadcrumbs, pressing gently to make sure they are evenly coated.

Step 4: Fry the Fish Cakes

  1. Heat the Oil:
    • In a large frying pan or skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of oil over medium heat.
  2. Fry the Fish Cakes:
    • Once the oil is hot, add the fish cakes to the pan, being careful not to overcrowd the skillet. Fry the fish cakes for 3-4 minutes per side, or until golden brown and crispy.
  3. Drain:
    • Once cooked, transfer the fish cakes to a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil.

Step 5: Make the Dipping Sauce (Optional)

  1. Mix Sauce:
    • In a small bowl, combine the mayonnaise, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Stir until smooth.

Step 6: Serve

  1. Serve:
    • Serve the crispy golden fish cakes hot with the dipping sauce on the side. They go well with a fresh salad, steamed vegetables, or a side of fries.

Tips:

  • Fish Options: You can use any firm white fish for this recipe, such as cod, haddock, tilapia, or even leftover cooked fish.
  • Baking Option: For a lighter version, you can bake the fish cakes. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C), place the patties on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, and bake for 15-20 minutes, flipping halfway through.
  • Freezing: You can freeze uncooked fish cakes for later. Just place them on a baking sheet in a single layer, freeze until solid, and then transfer to a freezer bag. When ready to cook, fry them straight from frozen, adding a minute or two to the cooking time.

These Crispy Golden Fish Cakes are a flavorful and satisfying meal that’s sure to be a hit at the dinner table! Enjoy the crispy exterior and tender, savory interior with your favorite sides and sauces.
