These Zesty Thai Fish Patties are a delightful twist on traditional fish cakes, offering a burst of Thai-inspired flavors in every bite.
Cut the fish into chunks and place them in a food processor.
Ensure the fish is fresh for the best flavor.
Add the chili peppers, green beans, spring onions, coriander leaves, fish sauce, kaffir lime leaves, curry paste, and lime juice to the processor.
Adjust the amount of chili to suit your spice preference.
Pulse the mixture until it reaches a minced texture, not a paste.
Avoid over-processing to maintain some texture.
Transfer the mixture to a bowl and shape into small patties with wet hands.
Wet hands prevent the mixture from sticking.
Refrigerate the patties for at least 30 minutes to firm up.
Chilling helps the patties hold their shape during cooking.
Heat the oil in a frying pan over medium heat and cook the patties for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown.
Cook in batches if necessary to avoid overcrowding the pan.
Drain the cooked patties on paper towels.
This step removes excess oil for a lighter dish.
Serve the patties warm with your favorite dipping sauce.
Pair with a sweet chili sauce for an authentic Thai experience.
