Directions
Place all the ingredients except the fish, squid, prawns and oil in a large
food processor bowl and blend until well mixed. Add the fish, squid and
prawns and process quickly.
Transfer the fish mixture to a bowl, cover with clingfilm and leave to rest
in the fridge for an hour. This allows the flavours to mingle and develop.
Shape the mixture into small patties and fry in 1/8" oil in a frying pan
over a medium heat until both sides are lightly browned. You can prepare
all the fishcakes this way before the meal, and then it only remains to
place them on a foil-covered baking tray in a preheated medium-hot oven at
180C/350F/gas 4 for 4-5 minutes until cooked right through.
Serve the fishcakes on a bed of mango salad, with a dressing of nam pla
sauce on the side if you like.
