Cassy’s Cookbook: Catfish Cakes

Superior Catfish Cakes
‘’Fishing: One of the only ways a Hobbit can spend an afternoon snoozing in the sun and still get dinner.’’

Ingredients:

• 1 Chicken Egg
• 1/2 chopped Yellow Onion or 3 chopped Green Onions
• 2 tbsp of Flour
• ½ tbsp of Dijon Mustard
• ½ tsp of Thyme
• 2 tbsp and ¼ cup of Bread-crumbs
• 200g of Salmon
• 2 tbsp of Olive Oil

Instructions:

• Cook the fish. Put it in the oven or in a frying pan for 20 min or until cooked.
• In a large bowl, mix Egg, Onions, Flour, Mustard, Thyme and 2 tbsp of Bread-Crumbs.
• Add the Salmon and mix carefully, to keep some whole chunks of fish in the cakes.
• Put the rest of the Bread-crumbs in a plate. With your hands, make 4 balls of fish mixture, and roll them in the Bread-Crumbs.
• Heat the Olive Oil in a pan at medium-high, and cook your fish cakes 2 minutes each side.
• Eat when hot and crispy and serve with your favourite mayonnaise sauce!

Tips for an easier recipe:

• Instead of fresh fish, you can use canned salmon or tuna. (The original recipe does, and it’s delicious!)
• When I want to go for fresh fish, my student wallet definitely prefers when I use Trout instead of Salmon!
