Striped Bass Cakes

[tomc76]

This is a great recipe, adjust ingredients to taste 

Striped Bass Cakes:

2 lbs fresh skinned striper fillet (red meat removed)
2 heaping TBS mayo
1 heaping TBS dijon mustard
2 eggs
1-2cups Italian breadcrumbs (w/o added cheese)--you use these to bind, so measurements are approximate--too much, you get hockey pucks.
1 c. finely chopped red pepper
1c cooked corn kernels (frozen work best)
1-3 tsp Old Bay seasoning (to taste)
red pepper flakes (to taste)
1/2 c chopped celery

Cooking:
cut fillets into manageable pieces and poach until flaky but not overcooked (white wine and bay leaf, or plain salted water)

saute corn, peppers and celery until tender. Set aside

In mixing bowl, combine mayo, mustard, eggs and sauteed veggies. Mix in old bay and pepper flakes, if using.

drain fish of all excess moisture and mix fish with above until you hav a crab-meat like consistency. Add bread crumbs a bit at a time until mix binds well (do not use too much!)

either fry cakes in butter or olive oil or bake in 350 degree overn for 40 minutes. Enjoy!

Great with tartar sauce.

Been making them a while, got it down to a science. You can use smaller blues, not bad either. Recipe is as close to exact as I can get, I usually dont use the exact measurements, eye it.

Those Luna Cakes were amazing!  I made them with today's catch.  Added a little diced celery and onion that I sweated for a few.     

[ChrisL]

Just made up a batch for the boys at the firehouse today for lunch with last weeks catch.
No leftovers 

Used a little bit of this recipe, little bit of Uncle Luna's, little bit of the back of the Hellman's bottle.

[SurfJockey]

Them little cakes never had a shot at a second day.   

[Hunter 2]

I just made a recipe similiar to the first that I found on a cooking sight,   it was great!!
I should have looked at this thread first. I like the Uncle Luna twist to it.

[FishOn]

I always use a similar recipe as the original poster. I recently used two pounds of fresh tog along with a pound of quality shrimp. Delicious!

[Hunter 2]

Im thinking of making these again today.
