500g firm white fish fillets (such as
ling), coarsely chopped
1 garlic clove, quartered
3 kaffir lime leaves, centre veins
removed, finely shredded
2 tablespoons coarsely chopped fresh
coriander
1 tablespoon fish sauce
3 teaspoons red curry paste
Pinch of salt
5 (about 30g) green beans, thinly
sliced
Peanut oil, to shallow-fry
60g (1/4 cup) white sugar
60ml (1/4 cup) fresh lime juice
1 tablespoon fish sauce, extra
1/2 Lebanese cucumber, deseeded, finely
chopped
1 small fresh red birdseye chilli,
deseeded, thinly sliced
Kaffir lime leaves, extra, to garnish
Place fish and garlic in the bowl of a
food processor and process until finely chopped. Add the lime
leaves, coriander, fish sauce, curry paste and salt, and process
until just combined. Transfer fish mixture to a bowl. Add the beans
and stir to combine. Divide the fish mixture into 12 equal portions.
Use wet hands to shape portions into 6cm patties. Place on a plate.
Heat oil in a large frying pan over
high heat. Reduce heat to medium. Add half the patties and cook for
2 minutes each side or until light brown and cooked through.
Transfer to a plate lined with paper towel. Repeat with the
remaining patties, reheating pan between batches.
Meanwhile, combine the sugar, lime
juice and fish sauce in a small saucepan over medium heat. Cook,
stirring, for 5 minutes or until sugar dissolves. Remove from heat.
Add the cucumber and chilli and stir to combine.
Arrange the fishcakes on a serving
platter and garnish with extra lime leaves. Serve immediately with
cucumber dipping sauce.
