Jurel Fishcakes Recipe:

Slice Jurel (or any) fish slab into narrow strips (aka fish sticks).
Pat dry on paper towels…
Dip in a beaten raw egg, then roll in bread crumbs mixed with Mrs Dash Roasted Garlic and Herb blend
Pan fry in a thin layer of oil



Eat them…

OR make Fish cakes…

Allow to cool sufficiently to then Shred/mash the fish

Mix with:
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1/2 cup Texas Pete (more or less to taste)… or other hot sauce of your choice
1 cup crushed potato chips (more or less)
1 tbs Worchestershire sauce
1 tbs mustard
salt and pepper to taste





Once mixed scoop out in 1/2 cup portions and fry in a pan of hot oil, shaping into patties as you set it into the pan



Cook each side until dark golden brown… about ½” to 3/4” thick… thinker and they will be undercooked in the middle.



Serve on toast or a bun with a generous serving of bread and butter pickles or sweet relish… think crabcake.

Many consider Jurel (Pacific Jack Crevalle) to not be good meat... I totally disagree... if prepped this way.

YMMV... Good Luck

Those fish cakes looks really good, Thanks for the recipe.

We normally use bluefish for fish cakes or balls. Ritz crackers, onion, green pepper as the filler/binder plus old bay.

Doug,

You eat Gar balls?

Ivenever eaten gar, around here it trash fish, chop with a machete and throw on bank for critters to eat.

I have, years ago, absolutely delicious. As good as any crab cakes I've eaten.

We make catfish and trout cakes, those look really good
