Fish Cakes

• 500g fresh fish
• 1 egg
• Tbsp red curry paste
• 1 tsp sugar
• 2 tsp fish sauce
• 1 tbsp chopped fresh coriander
• 3 spring onions chopped
• oil for frying

Chilli-lime Dipping Sauce  

• 1 clove of garlic, crushed
• 1/2 small green chilli minced
• 1 tbsp soft brown sugar
• 2 tbsp fish sauce
• 2 tbsp rice vinegar
• 1 tbsp lime juice
• 2 tbsp water

Method:

1. Cut the fish into chunks and place in a food processor with the chopped onions, egg, coriander, red curry paste, sugar and fish sauce and blend until it comes together in a paste
2. Heat the oil in a non-stick frying pan and roll balls out of the fish mixture to your desired size (wet hands make this easier).  I think smaller is nicer here as they are quicker to fry and make the perfect dipping snack
3. Fry on either side until golden and set aside to drain on kitchen paper
4. To make the dipping sauce place all the dry ingredients into a food processor and blend, then add the remaining liquid ingredients
5. Place in a bowl and serve with the fishcakes. Enjoy!
