Step by Step to Delicious
-
Place the fish, coriander, breadcrumbs, sweet chilli sauce, egg, shallots and garlic in a blender. Blend until well combined.
-
Heat a little oil in a non-stick pan. Shape the mixture into patties with your hands. If too soft, add more breadcrumbs.
-
Cook the patties for about four minutes each side until golden and firm, then drain briefly on paper towel.
-
Prepare the salad by tossing together carrot, capsicum, cabbage, bean shoots, rocket and coriander in a large bowl.
-
Make the dressing by shaking sesame oil, vinegar, lemon juice, salt, pepper and sweetener in a jar.
-
Drizzle the dressing over the salad and sprinkle with sesame seeds.
-
Serve the salad topped with fish cakes, adding extra sesame seeds if you like.
The Nutritional Edge
Fish provides lean protein, making this meal feel light yet filling. Fresh coriander not only lifts the flavour but is also a herb traditionally valued in many cuisines for its refreshing qualities. Combined with the crunch of raw vegetables and a sesame-based dressing, this recipe is a beautiful way to enjoy a balance of textures and flavours.
