Method

  • step 1

    Put the fish and other ingredients except the flour and panko in the bowl of a food processor. Pulse to form a chunky paste, then transfer to a bowl and stir in the flour.

  • step 2

    Using slightly wet hands, shape them into small patties, around 8-10. Tip the breadcrumbs onto a plate, and roll the fishcakes through to coat. Will keep chilled for two days

  • step 3

    Heat the air fryer to 180C. Cook for 10-15 mins, turning halfway until golden and cooked through.

  • step 4

    Meanwhile, for the smacked cucumber, lightly bash the cucumber along its length using a rolling pin, breaking the flesh a little without turning it to a pulp. Cut the cucumber in half and scoop out the seeds, then cut the flesh into bite-sized pieces. Sprinkle over 1/2 tsp salt, leave for 10 mins, then rinse well in cold water and drain.

  • step 5

    Mix the remaining ingredients in a medium bowl and toss the cucumber through.

  • step 6

    Heat the rice following pack instructions, then serve with the fishcakes, smacked cucumber, coriander sprinkled over and some sriracha for dipping.
