Every thing about FISH PATTIES | Vahrehvah :

Fish patties in an incredible snack; easy and quick to prepare with very few ingredients on hand and a very budget friendly dish too. Fish patties is made by mashing the boiled fish pieces along with little boiled and mashed potatoes, spices coated in crumbs and gently fried until golden brown and crispy.

Homemade fish patties are always healthy, can invent on new variations and a special treat to all. They are the ultimate delightful all-in-one dish as they contain fish, potatoes, onions, ginger and garlic, and spices. Fish patties can be made with any variety of fish such as kingfish, salmon, tuna (tuna patties), surmai, sole or even catfish.

Fish patties can also be made with or without adding potatoes. It purely depends on the individual’s taste. Generally if you like the natural fish flavour, then the patties can be made just with minced fish and breadcrumbs along with spices. Fish flavour is a complex mixture of several aroma compounds and varies between species.

The taste and aroma generally go hand in hand making it the most important contributor to flavour. The taste and texture of the meat usually depends on, where the fish is being raised as some fish have more of a pungent strong fish flavour while some fish have a very mild fish flavour.

Kingfish taste is almost unique and is great for making fish patties as the flesh is meaty and firm with a moist and delicate texture. The taste of kingfish is distinctly briney and has a nice flavour of the sea. It is neither heavy nor oily like mackerel or mullet. The mellowness and the subtle spices make it great for kids while mature palates would also love eating too. Kingfish is suited to both the direct smoky power of the grill or the gentle heat of a pan. Salmon is soft textured meat with a mild distinct flavour.

This variety of fish is highly recommended as it is high in omega 3 fatty acids and is a heart healthy fish. Fish patties could also be made with Tuna as the meat is tender and delicious. Fish patties make an exceptional dish as a starter or simply prepare a fish patties or stuff in a burger for lunch.

In another bowl, beat egg and put some bread crumbs in another plate. Now dip the balls into the egg mixture and then roll in the bread crumbs and make it into any shape you like. Shallow fry the fish patties until golden and crisp.
