could you make it with tinned salmon as a quick and lazy way, I always have tinned salmon in in case anyone comes round unexpectedly

You can indeey and they are jut as tasty.
I do myself a salmon (or tuna) sandwich for work then use the rest for fishcakes, you can freeze them too. Cook in the oven from frozen.

I like to make fishcakes with tinned fish - a storecupboard standby

I add about double the weight/volume of mased potato to drined tinned fish. Season, add chopped cornichons or capers, shape and chill or freeze. Then fry :T

As this has fallen from the front page of OS, I'll add it to the existing fishcake thread to keep recipe suggestions together.

I was supposed to be making tuna fishcakes for tea ... have defrosted some frozen mash scraps and it's really runny and liquid - I've added 3 massive tablespoons of flour is a bit firmer but no where near enough for forming fishcakes.
So I have added onions, gherkins, garlic and boiled egg ... would I be better off trying to fry the mixture or bake it in the oven???
Think it's going to be dodgy either way but not much else I can do - fry or bake??
Pls help!
Thanks Norm x

Hi i think your mash would have been fine once warmed when i take mine out the freezer it always seems wet but once warmed it is fine.But as you have added all your bits i would fry rather than bake.Hope this helps for next time.Heather

I would bake it rather than fry it that way it should dry out a little and won't burn in the frying pan

Bake, frying involves turning them over :eek:

cheers all - you're right stroppy - I'd never be able to turn it over - I think I'll bake it - I'm sure it'll be gorgeous :rotfl::eek:
thanks again x
