Ingredients

• 800g skinless hake fillets
• 1 x KNORR Naturally Tasty Creamy Chicken and Broccoli Bake
• 2 spring onions, finely chopped
• 1 red chilli, finely chopped
• Finely Grated Zest of 1 Lemon
• 5ml ginger, finely grated
• 60ml mayonnaise
• 75ml finely chopped fresh coriander
• salt and freshly ground black pepper
• 50g butter
• 60ml olive oil
• 180g fresh pineapple, chopped
• 1 lime, zested and juiced
• extra chopped red chilli, to taste

Method

• Using a sharp knife, chop the fish as finely as possible – do not mince the fish as it will result in tough fishcakes.
• Place the chopped fish, spring onion, chilli, lemon zest, ginger, mayonnaise, 60ml of the coriander & 1 packet of the KNORR Naturally Tasty Chicken & Broccoli Bake into a bowl. Mix together well and season to taste.
• Form the mixture into 8 cakes, then refrigerate for 30 minutes.
• Heat the butter and oil in a pan then fry the fishcakes for about 4 minutes on each side, or until golden and cooked through.
• For the salsa, mix together the pineapple, lime juice and zest, and a little extra chopped chilli, to taste. Season with salt and pepper.
• Serve the fishcakes topped with the salsa.
