Flour'less Fish Cakes
Searching for flour’less recipes for my 15 month old that I know she’d like isn’t easy!

Gluten free doesn’t have to be full of processed fillers, or be tasteless. With a little inspiration and substitute know how you can create dishes that are healthy and tasty.
INGREDIENTS
- 1 smoked mackerel 
- 1 large baked potato 
- 1/4 tin chickpeas 
- 1 egg (Chia egg if you’re dairy free) - 1 tbsp of ground chia or flaxseeds 
- 3 tbsp of water 
- leave to emulsify for 15 mins 
 
METHOD
Blitz all ingredients in a whizzer, section into small balls while the pan is on a medium heat, spoon in and squish into desired size with back of spatula. Once firm, gently flip onto the other side until golden and serve with a salad - yummy!
