I'm going for Bajan fish cakes.

From Barbados I miss the food!! On friday we will go to Oistins to eat fish, but my favourite were recently fried hot (as in very spicy hot) fish cakes!

INGREDIENTS




2 tbsp oil
1 cup onions, finely chopped
1 cup flour
1 tsp baking powder
Salt to your taste
1 egg lightly beaten
¾ cup milk
1 tbsp butter, melted
2 tbsp eschalots (finely chopped)
½ lb, salted cod fish, cooked and flaked
1 large fresh hot pepper ( finely chopped)




METHOD
In a heavy frying pan, heat the oil and saute the onions until they are just wilted.
Place flour, baking powder and salt in bowl.Make a well in center and pour egg, butter and milk. Mix together lightly, then add the onions, eschalot, salted cod fish, salt and pepper.
Stir well. Drop by tablespoon full into hot oil, but do not crowd them in the pan. Cook for abour 3-4 minutes until they are golden brown on both sides.
Remove from pan and drain on absorbent paper. Serve very hot
