Steamed fish cakes with vegetables - FAQ About Ingredients, Baking Time and Storage

Yes, cod works well, but you can substitute with other white fish like haddock, tilapia, or even salmon for a richer flavor. Adjust cooking time as needed.
Consider using crushed crackers, almond flour, or even finely ground oats for a gluten-free alternative. These will still provide a nice crispy coating.
Store cooked fish cakes in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat thoroughly before serving.
Yes, you can freeze them! Place cooked and cooled fish cakes on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Freeze for about 2 hours, then transfer to a freezer-safe bag or container. They can be frozen for up to 2 months. Reheat directly from frozen in the oven or pan-fry until heated through.
Feel free to experiment! Green beans, bell peppers, zucchini, or even asparagus would all be delicious steamed alongside the potatoes, broccoli, carrots, and spinach.
Omit the black bread in the fish cake mixture and use almond flour instead of breadcrumbs for coating and replace the potato with other low-carb alternatives such as cauliflower.
A squeeze of lemon juice is a classic. Tartar sauce, aioli, or a simple yogurt-dill sauce would also complement the flavors nicely.
