These fishcakes take very little effort to bring together and use store cupboard oily fish which is more affordable, time-saving and still packed with omega-3. New potatoes have thin papery skins so there’s no need to peel them, saving you even more time. You can make double quantities and freeze the extras for another day. Once you’ve cooked the potatoes, these fishcakes are ready in just 10 minutes.
