Dorado has a very distinct flavour. Quite fishy. I generally prefer it for fish cakes but really, any fish can be used. One can also roll the fish cake in cornflake crumbs before frying. It changes the fish cake quite a lot. Be careful not to overcook. They're not great if they're dry

Steps

20 mins

1

In a food processor chop bread until finely crumbed
2

Next chop the onion reasonably finely
3

Now cut the fish into cubes and put into processor a little at a time. It will mince the fish well
4

Peel and grate the carrot finely
5

Using a herb blade chop the parsley
6

Combine all fish, bread crumbs, carrot, parsley, salt, pepper and eggs. Mix well with your hands and then form patties. Please note that if your dorado is very large you may need an extra slice of bread. This binds all the ingredients together.

Oil should be hot and come up to halfway on the patty. If it covers the whole patty, you have too much oil. Turn the heat down to medium and fry until golden brown. About 2 to 3 minutes. Turn over to do the other side
