Smoked Fish Cakes

These aren’t just fish cakes; they’re luxurious spheres of indulgence. We craft them by folding delicately smoked flakes of premium fish with a vibrant medley of freshly chopped herbs, all nestled into a cloud of silky, whipped potato. Each bite offers a filling that is light yet satisfyingly rich, wrapped in a perfectly crisp, golden shell. What truly elevates these fish cakes is their versatility—they seamlessly adapt to any setting, adding a touch of elegant sophistication while delivering flavours that are both comforting and refined.

  • 1 tbsp chopped Parsley,
  • 1 tbsp chopped chives
  • 1 tsp chopped celery leaves
  • Sea salt and ground black pepper 
  • 1/2 cup Cornmeal
  • Oil for frying

Instructions
