Receta wasabi fishcakes
Fish cakes are quite easy to make and the proportion of fish to potato can vary according to taste although most recipes use about two-third fish to one third potato. Some chefs prefer a more runny mixture which they then drop by the spoonful into hot oil while others prefer shaping the fish cakes into burger-like forms and then lightly frying them in a little oil and butter.
