Chả Cá (Vietnamese Fish Cakes)
If you’re not a big fish fan because of the ‘fishy’ taste or smell, these fish cakes are the perfect compromise. The fish is lightly seasoned, processed into a smooth paste and can then be fried, steamed or baked. You will love how amazing these cakes taste with their unique, springy texture. The best part is they are made from scratch and that means no fillers or preservatives like the store-bought counterparts. Learn this easy recipe and you’ll never buy the stuff from the store again. Enjoy!
