Tartar Sauce Fish Cakes

These fish cakes are a meal in themselves, so just serve with a simple minted pea puree and arugula salad.

2. Place 1 tbs of tartar sauce in the middle of 6 of the cakes, top with another cake and mould both halves to make one large fish cake, enclosing the tartar sauce in the middle.
