East meets West....a different take on fish cakes! I used catfish but would think other white fish would work too.

Time 40m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 19

1/2 cup mayonnaise
1/2 cup sour cream
1/2 cup basil leaves
1/4 cup fresh parsley leaves
1/4 cup green onion, roughly chopped
1 clove crushed garlic
salt
1 lb catfish, chopped in chunks
1 egg
1/2 cup breadcrumbs
1 lime, zest of
1 finely chopped chili pepper (optional)
3 teaspoons ground coriander
1 teaspoon fresh grated ginger
salt
2 tablespoons chopped green onions or 2 tablespoons chives
2 tablespoons chopped parsley
1 cup grated carrot
vegetable oil (for frying)

Steps:

  • For the sauce, put all the ingredients in the bowl of your food processor, process until all the herbs are tiny specks, taste to see if it needs more salt
  • Pour the sauce in a bowl and place in the fridge for at least one hour, it will become thicker whilst resting
  • For the burgers, clean the food-processor bowl and put in: the fish, egg, breadcrumbs, zest, chili pepper, coriander, ginger, salt, green onions and the parsley
  • Process using the on and off technique until it becomes almost like a paste, but do not over- process
  • Remove from the processor and transfer to a bowl, mix in the carrots, leave to stand for approx 15 minutes (it will firm up a bit)
  • Shape into 4 burgers or into smaller portions
  • If you have a grill pan preheat it, brush some oil on to the burgers and grill a few minutes on each side until browned and done
  • In a frying pan heat some oil first and then fry on each side for a few minutes until browned and done
  • Serve with the sauce on the side as a burger on a bun or with fries or sautéed potatoes with a salad
