  • How do you make perch fish cakes?
  • Put the bread slices in a bowl and pour in enough water or milk to cover them by about ¾ inch (2 cm). Soak for 15 minutes, then squeeze out the bread and transfer it to another dish. Rinse the perch fillet, pat it dry with a towel, cut it into smaller pieces, and add it to the bread. Peel the onion, cut it into quarters, and add it to the bread and fish. Now run it all through a meat grinder, crack in the egg, and add salt, pepper, flour, and spices if you like. Mix everything together. Work the breadcrumbs into the mixture. Wet your hands with water and shape the cakes. Fry the perch cakes in vegetable oil on both sides until cooked through.
  • How do you fillet a whole fish? Remove the tail, head, and fins. Cut along the spine down to the backbone. Turn the fish on its side and, with a sharp knife, slice the meat away from the backbone. Flip it over and cut the fillet from the other side. Clean out the inside, removing the black membrane, since it's bitter and will spoil the flavor. Rinse and be sure to pat it dry well.
  • Every oil is good only up to a certain point — its smoke point, above which it starts to burn and forms harmful compounds, including carcinogens. Choose an oil with a high smoke point for frying.
  • Keep in mind that the right pan matters: even the best recipe can be ruined by the wrong skillet.
