Crayfish Hake Chilli Fish Cakes
A delicious spicy fish cakes with chucks of seasoned crayfish meat bursting with flavor perfect to have as a light meal or to make ahead and freeze. If you don’t want to add potato just add 1/4 cup extra panko crumbs. All the seasonings and sauces are approximate amounts, simply increase or decrease amounts according to your taste. You also have the option of crumbing the fish cakes on the outside. The best part about fish cakes you can add any seasoning or sauce that you like. For me it is always extra chillies.
