Why recepie famous for?

These fish cakes are a perfect way to add fish into your diet. You can use any Thai curry paste you like (Thai red, green, massaman, etc).

Ingredients

For the fish cakes
2 frozen cod fillets, thawed almost completely and finely chopped
2 spring onions, finely chopped
2 tsp finely chopped flatleaf parsley
1 tbsp Thai green curry paste
1 free-range egg
2 tsp sesame oil
salt and freshly ground black pepper
For the noodles
1 tbsp sesame oil
150g/50oz frozen sliced green beans
100g/30oz beansprouts
300g/100oz fresh egg noodles
3 tbsp soy sauce
2 tbsp Sriracha chilli sauce

Instructions

Mix together the cod, spring onions, parsley and Thai green curry paste. Add the egg and a pinch of salt and pepper and mix thoroughly.

Heat the sesame oil in a small frying pan, over a medium–low heat and add the fish cake mixture in 2 spoonfuls. Try to shape into 2 circles–it’s almost like cooking thick pancakes. Cook for 5 minutes, then flip and cook for another 5 minutes, or until they are golden-brown on both sides.

Just before you flip the fish cakes, to make the noodles, heat the sesame oil in a wok or large frying pan over high heat. Add the sliced green beans and cook for 2 minutes, then add the beansprouts and cook for another minute.

Add the noodles to the wok and spread them out using tongs or chopsticks – you want them to get a lot of heat. Mix gently and cook for 2 minutes.

Add the Sriracha, soy sauce, and a tablespoon of cold water, and toss carefully. Cook for 1 minute, or until the noodles are semi-soft.

Divide the noodles between two bowls or plates, top with the fish cakes and enjoy!
