Pike perch fish cakes
Origin of the recipe
Pike perch is one of the most delicious freshwater fish in Europe, and it's no wonder it's so popular in our kitchens. It's quite large, very tender, nutritious, and low in calories, rich in vitamins (it even contains vitamin C!) and other beneficial nutrients. Pike perch cutlets are a truly excellent healthy dish, especially if you don't overcook them. Your oven can help with that.

Cooking tips
To make the cutlet mixture more tender, pass the minced meat through the meat grinder one more time.
It's best to make the cutlets not too flat, as they'll be cooked mostly in the oven. Thicker cutlets will keep them from drying out and will be juicy.
