- 2 tablespoons of fish sauce
- 1 tablespoon of baking powder
- 1 tablespoon of tapioca starch
- 1/4 tablespoon of turmeric powder
- 1/4 tablespoon of pepper
- 1 tablespoon of sugar
- A little finely chopped spring onion
Mix well, cover with cling film and refrigerate for about 1 hour to give the meat a smooth, springy texture.

Add the patties to a pan of hot oil (fry over medium heat so they cook evenly) and fry until golden, then lift them out onto paper towels to soak up any excess oil.
Homemade fish cakes are springy, smooth and hygienic – delicious with hot steamed rice and sweet and sour sauce or salt, pepper and lime for dipping.
