Thai Fish Cakes Recipe

We've made this Thai Fish Cake recipe with snapper because it gives the cakes a succulent flavour and texture. As snapper can be an expensive fish and may not always be available, you can use any white fish you like.

Fish recipes are popular with those of us on a diet because it's low in fat, high in protein and contains omega 3 fatty acids. The beauty of this recipe is that it is very tasty and very quick and easy to cook.

This recipe is low in saturated fats and a good source of protein.
