Delicious and crispy Hake Fish Cakes made with tender boiled hake, potatoes, and fresh vegetables. A simple and flavorful fish patty recipe perfect for lunch or dinner.
Ingredients:
2.2 lbs hake (fresh or thawed frozen)
1 bunch soup greens (carrot, parsley root, celery)
2 medium potatoes
1 medium yellow onion
2 cloves garlic
1 tablespoon vegetable seasoning
All-purpose flour (for coating)
Oil for frying
1 teaspoon sweet paprika
Salt and black pepper to taste
Preparation:
Peel and roughly chop the potatoes and soup greens. Boil them in salted water until softened. Add the cleaned hake and cook until the fish is tender. Drain the water, separate the fish meat from the bones, and grind it together with the potatoes and greens using a meat grinder or food processor.
Finely chop the onion and garlic, and add them to the mixture along with the paprika, vegetable seasoning, salt, and pepper. Mix everything thoroughly. Shape the mixture into patties, dredge each in flour, and fry them in hot oil until golden brown on both sides.
