Thermomix Thai Fish Cakes
The best family leftovers dish ever! Super easy and tasty Thai inspired fish cakes. We could have doubled down on these, they are AMAZING!
If you love bold Thai flavors but want something quick and easy to whip up, these Thermomix Thai Fish Cakes are the perfect solution! Bursting with fragrant herbs, a hint of spice, and that signature balance of sweet, salty, and zesty, they come together in minutes thanks to Thermomix. They're also a fantastic way to use up leftover fish, potato, or both—turning simple ingredients into a delicious snack, appetiser, or light meal. Serve them with our Thai Chilli Jam as a dipping sauce, and you’ve got a fuss-free dish that tastes like it came straight from a Thai street food stall!
We have cooked the fish and potatoes together here, but you can certainly replace either with leftovers as mentioned. A great way to cook once and eat twice!
