  Really easy to make, and extremely tasty. I used smoked but not peppered mackerel. Tonight, I'm using Tuna & red onion!

  Lovely recipe, simple and tasty. I used leek as I didn't have spring onions and I always add medium oatmeal to my breadcrumbs this gives a real good crunch and very tasty. Will definitely make these again.

  These are the lightest fishcakes I have ever eaten, really tasty and soooo easy to make! Definitely worth making up double and freezing them for an even quicker mid-week meal.

  Really delicious. Only draw back was I only managed to get 6 fish cakes rather than the 8 suggested. Nevertheless, shall definitely be making again.

  Was worried these would taste too strong but were absolutely delish! Sprayed them with a bit of spray oil and baked them in the oven for 30 mins turning halfway through to keep the fat down and they were lovely, light and crispy. Lovely served with some pickled beetroot.

  Have made these 3 times now, absolutely fantastic! A real hit with all the family. I serve with homemade watercress sauce and mixed salad. Fishcakes freeze really well. I dont fry mine, spray with oil and bake in the oven at 180 for about 20 - 25 mins.

  These tasted nice, but the bones were a real turn-off. I had removed a number of them while preparing (finicky and time-consuming), but we still ended up with bones every other mouthful. The meal took forever! For that reason I probably won't be making them again.

  These were really nice. I cooked them in the oven at 200 degrees for 15 minutes each side rather than grill or fry them and they came out very well and nicely browned.
