Reviews
Excellent! My husband does not eat meat, only fish. So I am always looking for great fish recipes. This is fantastic! I have made it several times, even for a party where it was a hit! I use all types of white fish and it always is great!
I was running out of ideas of how to serve trout and then I came across this recipe. My whole family loves it! It’s very simple to do and one of the best ways to enjoy trout. This will be a family favorite for a long time.
My family really liked these fish cakes. I used what I had on hand in my kitchen – which was slightly different than the recipe – trout (fresh caught from a neighbor) was baked, but not smoked, used regular (Italian seasoned) breadcrumbs (not Panko), had no capers, used a dallop of mayo & a splash of milk instead of whipping cream, and added a few shakes of usual kitchen cupboard seasonings (garlic & onion power, celery salt, Bay Seasonings). My shredded trout came to between 1 1/2 to 2 cups. But, the mix only made 4 decent-sized (4″ ?) cakes. I used a bit more oil to get a crispy outside & tender/light inside.
Family especially liked 2 things – the lemon and the fact that the trout flavor didn’t overwhelm the fish cakes, but rather the seafood flavor, and the cakes were light (rather than a feeling of oil-soaked bread).
Enjoy!
