fish cakes?

[phdlife]

I usually do them with coriander/lime for flavour, but I don't have any in atm. What else could I use? I've got lots of chives in the garden - would those be good? with what else?

Chives would be okay. I use parsley when I make salmon ones.

I use spring onions, a tin of boneless red salmon, some may, some tommy ketchup and chives and a splash of lemon juice. it's an annabel karmel recipe. boys LOVE it and request it often.

found a nice recipe with mustard and chives, went down really well!

Simon Rimmers adds horseradish cream to his, which works really well - www.eatthechef.com/recipe.aspx?id=26

Have a look at this recipe I found on mydish.co.uk, they're made with sweet potato, salmon and dill. There are other great fishcake recipes on there if you don't like the look of this.
