MIXED VEGETABLES FISH & MEAT PATTIES

Meat Patties are like burgers and an all time favourite with children.  These patties have a combination of several ingredients like fish paste, minced meat and a few vegetables like waterchestnuts, cabbage and carrots.  A good way to get children to eat vegetables without noticing them.
These patties are easy and worthy to prepare cos' they are awesome serve with mayo dip or just tomato and chilli sauce.  The patties are soft, chewy and rich in proteins. Really nice.
They need not be deep fried but easily done by pan-fry which does not require much oil.

  3. Hi Florence, do try it. Once you try patties with home made fish paste, you will love it. You can create other patties with different vege and flavours - spicy or non-spicy.

  4. Hi Phong Hong, this is very addictive, can't stop at one. I can have the whole plate to myself if not for the young girl in the house who loves these patties very much.

  10. Hi Mic, for almost all the recipes I tried with fish paste, I will use Spanish Mackerel. It is less bony and easier to make into a paste.
