Put a Twist on the Traditional with Melt-In-The-Middle Fish Cakes

Published

on

Everyone would love to cook up something new in the kitchen, but sometimes time and the effort it takes hold us back. The best way to overcome this is by incorporating a new flavor or a twist on a traditional product to help add novelty to your meal.

If you’re looking for easy-to-make inspiration, this melt in-the-middle cod fish cakes recipe is perfect for delivering on unexpected tastes and sensations.

“Tucked into each of the crispy cod and dill fish cakes is a pocket of creamy sauce, meaning each bite gets a taste of mild, buttery cod and bold dill,” says Tom Filippou, executive chef for President’s Choice cooking school. “Use light pressure when zesting the lemon for the salad dressing — you only want to scrape off the yellow zest, as the white pith underneath is bitter.”
