Fish Cakes

Joel Lafond, Executive Chef with the Shaarey Zedek Synagogue Catering Department

 

Ingredients for Fish Cakes

680 gm (1-1/2 lbs) Kosher Pollock, well drained and shredded
250 ml (1 cup) Panko Crumbs or Bread Crumbs
62.5 ml (1/4 cup) Red Pepper, finely diced
62.5 ml (1/4 cup) Parsley, chopped
62.5 ml (1/4 cup) Green Onion, chopped
62.5 ml (1/4 cup) Dijon Mustard
125 ml (1/2 cup) Mayonnaise
1 Large Egg, beaten
10 ml (2 tsp) Cajun Spice

 

Method

Combine pollock, panko crumbs and the next seven ingredients together in a large bowl. Using a small ice cream scoop or ladle, form mixture into balls. Gently flatten into cakes. Roll cakes into a baking dish of panko crumbs and place cakes on wax paper-lined sheet pan. Cover and refrigerate at least 2 hours, or the day ahead.

Heat 250 ml (1 cup) canola oil in a heavy, large pan over medium heat. Fry cakes in batches until brown, flip and brown the other side, adding more oil as needed. Transfer to a paper-lined platter. Serve with dipping sauce.

Cakes can be made ahead of party time and re-warmed in a 200º C (400 º F) oven until heated through.

Ingredients for Dipping Sauce

250 ml (1 cup) Mayonnaise
30 ml (2 tbsp) Extra Virgin Olive Oil
15 ml (1 tbsp) Dijon Mustard
  Zest of 1 Lemon
15 ml (1 tbsp) Fresh Lemon Juice
125 ml (1/2 cup) Capers, drained and chopped
125 ml (1/2 cup) Red Onion, finely chopped
125 ml (1/2 cup) Italian Parsley or Cilantro, chopped, or 1/2 of each

 

Method

Whisk the mayonnaise, olive oil and mustard together until blended. Whisk in lemon juice and zest. Add the remaining ingredients and combine.
