Ingredients
- 1/3 cup mayonnaise
- 1 egg
- 1 tablespoon lime juice
- 1 1/2 pounds cooked cod, reserved from Day 1, skin removed
- 2 celery stalks, minced
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 3 slices whole-wheat bread
- 3 tablespoon olive oil
- Chipotle Cream, recipe follows
- Sauteed Peppers and Onions, recipe follows
- Mixed Green Salad, recipe follows
Directions
Blend the mayonnaise, egg, and lime juice in a large mixing bowl. Flake the cod into small pieces and add to the bowl. Mix in the celery and salt.
Pulse the bread in a blender or food processor to make fine crumbs. Pour the crumbs on a sheet of waxed paper.
Form the cod mixture into 8 patties. Gently place each patty in the bread crumbs and using a pancake spatula, turn to coat evenly. Heat the oil in a large, heavy skillet over medium heat. Place 4 fish cakes in the skillet and cook until the crumbs are golden brown, about 5 minutes per side; turn carefully. Repeat with the remaining fish cakes, adding more oil as necessary. Serve with the chipotle cream.

- 1 1/2 red peppers, cut into thin slivers
- 1 1/2 green peppers, cut into thin slivers
- 1/2 onion, cut into thin slivers
- Chopped cilantro
- Salt and pepper
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil and saute the vegetables until tender.
Mixed Green Salad:

With a couple of changes a delicious recipe. I added minced green pepper and with the celery sautéd until translucent. Also I added two thirds of the bread crumbs to the fish cakes and then used the rest of it to coat the outside of the fish cakes. My fish cakes did not fall apart and were very flavorful. Bon appetite!

I thought this recipe was great. I have tried it with Mahi Mahi and cod and I have to say the Mahi Mahi was awesome. It gave a little more texture to the cakes.
