  2. 2 Use a fork to shred the fish meat into fluffy strands, then air dry.
  3. 3 Drop handfuls of fish into a pan of hot oil; the fish will puff up into crispy patties, then push them back into round shapes.
  4. 4 Remove them and place them on oil-absorbing paper as soon as they turn yellow.
  5. 5 Shredded green mango mixed with sweet and sour fish sauce and chili, served alongside crispy fish cakes.
