Fresh Fishcakes Recipe

This Fresh Fish Cakes Recipe is another recipe that the family really liked but I kind of lost track of it through the years. Even though the family really liked it I didn’t prepare it very often because it is somewhat time consuming. What this recipe is mainly doing is combining the fish with mashed potatoes and chopped onions. If you have ever prepared mashed potato cakes before the consistency of the recipe is the same. I used tilapia in this recipe and it was really good. You could use salmon, or trout, but you would be risking a fishy flavor which I personally don’t care for. Most of the time involved in preparing this recipe is precooking the fish and the potatoes. The fish mixture is on the soft side so when you form the patties, handle them carefully to keep them from coming apart. I prepared the recipe as written-this is a large recipe so you may want to cut it in half.

If you like fish patties or cakes give this recipe a try. Enjoy
