Foodie Fridays: Baked Fish cakes

Image
   I first stumbled upon this recipe in high school, and I've loved it ever since. One can choose to either bake or deep fry the fish cakes. I went with baking because it's healthier and it gives the food a unique flavour. So here goes: Ingredients 2 pieces of Tilapia fillet 1 lemon 6 medium-sized potatoes 1 egg, beaten Parsley  Salt Cayenne pepper Pre-heat oven to 180 degrees C / gas mark 4 Method 1.   Marinate the fish for an hour in turmeric, salt and cayenne pepper 2.   Peel, slice and boil the potatoes at high heat for 10 minutes. Drain. 3.   Boil the fillet separately for the same duration of time. Drain. Fillet, marinated and ready for boiling 4.   Mash the fillet and potatoes and mix them together well. Mashed potatoes and fillet 5.   Season accordingly if need be ( Remember that the fish had been marinated in salt and pepper ). Add parsely and egg and mix well. 6.   Take a palm-sized amount of the mixture and shape into a ball. P
