Step-by-step

  1. Place the fish, grated ginger, garlic, chilli, egg, spring onions, coriander, sugar and fish sauce in a food processor. Grate in the zest of the lime and squeeze in half the juice. Pulse until you have a paste.
  2. With slightly damp hands take a spoonful of the mixture, about the size of a golf ball and flatten to form a neat pattie. Lightly dust with flour.
  3. Heat the oil in a pan and fry the fish cakes for 2 minutes on each side until golden brown. You may need to do this in batches.
  4. When cooked, drain on some kitchen paper then serve.
