Zesty thai fish cakes
These Eastern-inspired fishcakes make a great curry-style starter and offset a meaty main tremendously

Transfer to a bowl and stir in the sliced green beans.
Step 3
Divide the mixture into 16 pieces, roll each one into a ball and then flatten into discs.
Step 4
Transfer the fish cakes to a plate, cover with cling film and place in the fridge for 30 minutes - 1 hour to ‘firm up’.
