This is the FINEST and bestest recipe on food network site. Substitute a can of salmon for the Hake and you have a keeper for the rest of the family to enjoy!! Never heard of Hake but salmon is a perfect substitute. Been making these for years!!!

I’ll take or leave the tuna; nix the coriandor and replace with a tsp of Old Bay or, for a spicy take, Tony Chachere’s. The Dijon Caper Mayo is fine but simple Tarter Sauce pairs well.  Honestly, this recipe provides a perfect solution for how to use the ample winter’s store of fresh water fish we procure each Minnesota summer “at the cabin, then.”  In short, this is a perfect way to dress up any fish and the recipe now resides at the top of my recipe box. Killer!

My family LOVED these! My kids couldn’t get enough. They were crispy and packed full of flavor. The Dijon Caper Mayo was a great pairing. After I made the mayo, i was concerned it would over power the fish cakes, but it was a perfect bright note and complimented the herbs in the cakes. The only thing I changed in the recipe was the bread crumbs. I did half panko crumbs with traditional bread crumbs for extra crunch.

I put on my recipe list, “random white fish” and ended up with rockfish. Probably wouldn’t use again, but it didn’t affect the recipe at all. I would prefer the non-pareil capers over the regular next time. We are trying to use fish in at least one recipe each week and this is definitely a keeper!

I love to cook and was looking for a kosher version of crab cakes and found it! Using Tilapia in the mix, these were such a success my kids (not all like fish) finished it and demanded that I make it more often. Thank you, Dave Liebrman!

I love fishcakes, and these are easy, elegant, and cheap. I always eat too many when I make a batch!
