Ingredients

3-4 Cups Ground Fish (you can add ground shrimp) 1 Whole Egg 3-4 Tbsp. Thai Blend Seasoning 1 Tbsp. Cayenne Pepper 1 Tsp. Sugar 1 ½ Cups Vegetable Oil 1 Cup Fresh Green Beans ½ Cup Basil Leaf

Directions Preparing the ingredients: Grind the fish (shrimp) into a paste. Slice the green beans as thin as possible. Cut the basil leaf into long/slender pieces. Making the Fish Cakes: Mix the fish (shrimp), egg, sugar, Thai Blend, cayenne pepper, green beans and basil in a bowl – use your hands and mix it thoroughly for 3-5 minutes. Pre-heat the oil in a skillet on medium heat. Take the paste and make small round cakes (like small hamburger patties) to ensure they will cook quickly. After the cakes are made, place in the oil until one side is golden brown, and then flip over for the other side to get golden brown. After golden brown on both sides, remove from the oil and place on dry sheet, paper towel or rack to remove any residual oil. The fish cakes are now ready to eat and go well with a Thai sweet chili sauce for dipping the fish cakes. This is a great authentic Thai recipe to serve as an appetizer for your family or guests.
