Keto Indian Fish Patties

These Keto Indian inspired fish patties are loaded with aromatic spices and baked until crisp and golden. Our Keto Indian fish recipe blends canned salmon, fiery chili, fragrant herbs, and fresh scallions with a touch of mayonnaise to bind. Once formed, the patties are coated in a spiced ground almond crumb and oven-baked. These make a delicious Keto lunch or starter option.

Can I Use a Different Fish?

We have used canned salmon for our Keto fish patties. Salmon is a great Keto friendly fish option as it is naturally rich in fats and omega 3’s. If you would like to use an alternative fish, canned tuna would be a good substitute. Follow the recipe exactly as written, swapping the salmon for the same quantity of tuna. Please be sure to adjust your macros to account for any changes made to the recipe.

Serving Suggestions

These delicious spicy fish cakes make a great light lunch option served with a hearty salad or an Indian inspired slaw. Alternatively, these would make a great starter or low carb snack option. Perfect served with a cooling Keto raita dip or vegetable chutney.

Recipe Steps

steps 6

50 min

  • Step 1

    Add the cauliflower rice to a small saucepan. Add 1/4 cup of water. Set over a medium heat and bring to a simmer. Simmer the rice for 3-4 minutes or until cooked through and tender. Drain completely and set aside to steam dry and cool.
    Step 1
  • Step 2

    Flake the canned salmon into a mixing bowl. Crush the garlic, finely chop the scallions, chili pepper, and cilantro. Add to the bowl along with the curry powder, cooled cauliflower rice, and the mayonnaise. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper and mix everything together well to combine, distributing the flavors evenly throughout.
    Step 2
  • Step 3

    Preheat the oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit and line a shallow oven tray with baking paper. Divide the fishcake mixture into four even-sized portions. Shape each portion into a patty with your hands, each about a half-inch thick. Squeeze the mixture together tightly, so the patties hold their shape.
    Step 3
  • Step 4

    Crack the egg into a small bowl and beat until smooth. Add the ground almonds to another small bowl along with the turmeric and cumin. Season the almond mixture with a pinch of salt and pepper and stir well to combine. You may adjust the quantity of spices to suit your personal taste.
    Step 4
  • Step 5

    Take one of the fish patties and dredge it in the beaten egg until completely coated. Then dredge the egg coated patty in the ground almond mixture until breaded all over. Repeat the process with the remaining patties until each one is liberally coated in the spiced almond crumb.
    Step 5
  • Step 6

    Arrange the fish cakes on the prepared oven tray. Transfer to the oven and bake for 20-25 minutes or until piping hot through and golden brown all over. Serve with your favorite Keto sides or a cooling dipping sauce.
