Thai Fish Cakes

Thai fish cakes are a traditional dish from Thailand. They are made with a combination of fish, spices, and herbs, which are then mixed and formed into small, round patties. The fish cakes are then deep-fried until they are golden and crispy on the outside. They are usually served with a dipping sauce, such as sweet chili sauce, and accompanied with a variety of fresh herbs and vegetables. They are a popular street food in Thailand and can also be found in many Thai restaurants around the world.

  • 1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lime juice
