Step by Step guide

Step 1

In a skillet, sauté the chopped onion and garlic until golden brown. Add the cinnamon, cloves, and cumin, stir to combine, and transfer to a bowl.

Step 2

In a food processor, grind the bread, adding one-third to the onion mixture and reserving the rest for breading. Puree the fish in the food processor until smooth.

Step 3

Clean and finely chop the bell pepper and cilantro. Place the fish mince in a bowl with the onion mixture, add the pepper, half of the cilantro, the egg, lemon juice, salt, and mix thoroughly.

Step 4

Add the remaining cilantro to the breading. Shape the minced meat into patties and coat them. Fry the patties over high heat for 4 minutes on each side until golden brown. Then reduce the heat and continue frying, turning the patties occasionally, for 10–15 minutes until fully cooked.
