This is a prequel to my post in February on Homemade Fish Cakes. Here are some shots of my mother making fishcakes from scratch.
The Yellowtail is our choice of fish for making fish cakes
First, fillet the fish
Then remove the flesh from the skin
Mince the meat. Add salt water a tablespoon at a time as you mince.
Keep going. It'll come together in a cohesive mass.
Watch it transform:
Now, pick it up at smack it on the chopping board for about 10 - 15 minutes
Do you see it? Nice and jiggly
Wet your hands and shape them into fish cakes
You can now fry the fish cakes.

Thanks for sharing! I must try it one of these days!
wow, your step by step instructions make the making of fishcake seems so easy. I must forward to Jane and Diane for them to try! Of course, in return I will get to taste it.. hehe..
Steph, you're so smart! My mother always buys the biggest Yellowtail she can find.
