Cheese Fish Cakes

Hake cakes turn out very tasty, with a delicious crispy crust on the outside and soft on the inside. Thanks to the processed cheese, fish cakes are incredibly juicy. Combined with cheese, the fish fillet gains a light creamy taste and becomes even more tender. Instead of hake for this recipe it is possible to use pollack fillet, pike-perch or cod.
