Ingredients

chicken cakes:

  • 2 medium chicken breasts 420g / 15 oz
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/3 large red bell pepper 50g / 1.8 oz
  • 100 g / 3.5 oz cremini mushrooms / 5 small or 2 very large
  • 3.5 teaspoons mild curry powder*
  • 3 tablespoons flour
  • salt and black pepper to taste
  • 2 tablespoons oil for cooking the fritters

to serve:

  • ½ broccoli steamed or cooked, or green beans / other vegetables of your choice
  • mashed potatoes

cucumber salad:

  • ½ greenhouse cucumber sliced
  • 2 tablespoons plain yogurt
  • 1 clove garlic pressed
  • salt and black pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Cut the chicken into small 1 cm / ½ inch cubes, the bell pepper into ½ cm / ¼ inch cubes, finely chop the mushrooms.
  • In a big bowl, mix all ingredients for the cakes together, season to taste with salt and pepper.
  • Heat the oil on a large frying pan, the pan should be well heated. Scoop a heaping tablespoon of the batter onto skillet, flatten into about 1 cm /0.5-inch thick disk, repeat with the remaining batter (working in batches).
  • Cook over medium-high heat for about 2 minutes on one side and then one minute on the other, until the meat is cooked through and the cakes are lightly browned (flip the cakes only when well cooked on one side and golden, otherwise they may fall apart while flipping).
  • Transfer the cakes on a plate lined with kitchen towel to drain the excess fat.
  • Serve with mashed potatoes, steamed broccoli, and cucumber salad.
  • Cucumber salad: Slice the cucumber and mix with yogurt and pressed garlic, season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Enjoy!

Notes

  • Depending on the brand, the intensity of the curry powder may vary, so adjust the amount to your liking. If you’re not sure, you can always add a little less, cook one fritter and taste. Then you can add more curry powder to the batter.
  • Chicken cakes reheat on the next day very well, just cook them over low heat with a little bit of oil until warm.
