- Mix the fish in a food processor to a fine paste, then add all ingredients to the fish mixture and mix thoroughly. Shape into patties 3 inches wide. (Thin patties cook faster and go farther, but you can make them any size you like.)
- Heat butter in a large frying pan over medium-high heat. Add fish cakes and fry until brown on both sides. Remove to a serving platter
- Heat some oil in a pan and fry the cakes in batches until crisp and golden. Drain on paper towel.
- Place the avocados in a large bowl with the lime juice and mash until smooth.
- Add the other ingredients and mix well to combine. Place your Mexican Fish Cakes in a large serving bowl and surround with assorted corn chips and crackers to serve.
