  • salt and freshly ground pepper
  • 100g breadcrumbs
  • 50g All Bran Flakes
  • Sunflower oil for frying

Instructions

  • ***Make double sure you have a good non-stick pan before attempting this. Placing the cakes in the fridge for a few minutes before frying also helps them keep their shape. ***

  • Place the breadcrumbs and All Bran Flakes in a plastic bag and bash them to a fine dust.
  • Shape the cakes with your hands (it should make about 9 cakes) and roll it in the breadcrumb mixture.
  • Heat the oil in a non-stick frying pan and fry the cakes on both sides until golden. Drain on kitchen paper.
  • Serve the cakes immediately. Even better wehn accompanied by lemon juice, sea salt and tartare sauce.
