Chef's Notes
Do not skip the food processor step! Achieving a uniform, sticky paste is the secret to getting your fish cakes to hold their shape in the hot oil without falling apart.
Pro Tip
Keep your hands slightly damp when shaping the patties to prevent the sticky fish mixture from clinging to your fingers like an overly attached royal courtier.
Kitchen Catastrophe Warning
Dropping wet, waterlogged green beans straight into your fish mixture, which turns your pristine patties into an unholy, disintegrating soup the moment they touch the hot oil.
The Jester's Corner
Royal Court Comedy
I asked the court chef why these were so small and he told me it's to ensure the nobility stays humble—and hungry.
The Culinary Science
The mechanical action of the food processor breaks down the myosin proteins in the fish, creating a sticky gel matrix that traps moisture and gives the cakes their iconic springy texture.

Delicate Protein Preservation
Storage Science
Cool quickly and refrigerate in an airtight container immediately. Seafood degrades rapidly; consume within 24 to 48 hours maximum.
Reheating Science
DO NOT microwave on high. Seafood proteins tighten and become rubbery when rapidly heated. Reheat gently in a covered pan over low heat with a splash of water or stock to create gentle steam, preserving moisture.
