Salmon and sweet potato fishcakes - recipe

I still absolutely love cooking for Henry, and luckily he still likes to eat everything we put in front of him. Yesterday I made some fish cakes which he loved so thought I'd share the recipe here. I just made it up with the ingredients that I had in the fridge so you could substitute them with anything you might have that needs using up.

Makes 8 small fish cakes

1 medium potato
1 medium sweet potato
2 tablespoons of sweetcorn
1 teaspoon of chopped parsley
1 medium salmon fillet
A handful of kale, chopped finely 

• Bake the potatoes in the oven along with the salmon.

• When the potatoes and cooked though, leave them to cool and then remove the skins.

• Mash the remaining potato with a fork and add the other ingredients to it.

• Once the fish is cooked, flake it with your fingers and add to the potato mixture. 

• Roll into small balls and flatten slightly. At this point you can freeze the fishcakes if necessary.

• Add a little olive oil to a frying pan and cook the fishcakes until golden brown before serving.



Henry ate all of his fish cakes like a little star; he is really loving his food at the moment. After every mouthful he says 'mmmmm' with a huge smile on his face. He really makes us laugh with some of the faces that he pulls whilst eating.
