Thai Fish cakes can be made with ready made red curry paste, but try to make it yourself, as food processor will do all the hard work for you. I bought this ready made red curry paste to make fish cakes as I suddenly desired to eat and want to know the difference between ready made and freshly home made red curry paste. The truth is freshly homemade are the best, but as a alternative we can use ready made red curry paste, during our lazy times and for a quick starter or appetizer. For the Thai fish cakes use any white firm fish, I have used cod. Traditionally it is served with a cucumber dressing but can serve with any sauce you like. Instead of deep frying I have shallow fried it, but with the same red curry paste I made Thai fish cakes with tilapia fillet as well but deep fried.
