Fish cakes with chive yoghurt
Item 1 of 1
With a crisp sesame seed coating, these little haddock fish cakes from Frances Atkins have a definite Asian feel with flavour from ginger, chilli and cardamom. The chive yoghurt is a lovely cooling contrast, and they could be served with steamed rice or vegetables for a more substantial dish.
