Cooking Tips

• Make sure to remove any bones from the fish fillets before cooking.
• You can use any white fish fillets like cod, haddock, or tilapia for this recipe.
• To make the tikkis more flavorful, you can add chopped fresh coriander leaves and mint leaves to the mixture.
• If the mixture is too soft to shape into patties, you can add breadcrumbs or cornflour to bind it together.
• For a healthier option, you can bake the tikkis in the oven instead of frying them.

Storage and Serving

• These Fish Tikki Cakes are best served hot and fresh.
• If you have any leftovers, you can store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
• To reheat the tikkis, you can either microwave them or heat them in a pan with a little oil.
