Spicy Thai Fish Cakes With Green Beans image

My husband makes these yummy fish cakes. They have a nice mild fish flavor, lots of spice and a fresh, crisp crunch from the green beans. My favorite fish cakes! (Updated with a few revisions on 4/18/07)

Time 30m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 lb white fish fillet (such as cod or 1 lb haddock)
2 tablespoons Thai red curry paste (such as "Thai Kitchen" brand)
1 egg
2 tablespoons fish sauce
1 teaspoon sugar
2 tablespoons cornstarch
1 tablespoon cilantro, chopped
1/2 lb fresh green beans, thinly sliced and chopped
2 teaspoons grated lime zest
1 tablespoon lime juice
vegetable oil (for frying)

Steps:

  • Finely chop fish (may use blender or food processor, or just good chopping skills).
  • Add curry paste through lime juice. Process or mix with your hands until finely ground and blended.
  • Using lightly floured hands, form about 12 small patties. Chill patties 2 hours or until firm (if you have time).
  • Heat deep-frying pan over high heat, add oil and fry fish cakes a few at a time. Turning carefully until browned. Drain on paper towels.
  • Serve alone, or will a cool sauce. I like sour cream. A cucumber relish would also be yummy.
