Lempiang Ikan/Fried Fish Cake

Starting of the December school holidays and been in lazy mode for the past few days as no need to rush here and there :D Cooking also becoming lazy, fish porridge, minced pork porridge, fried rice, fried meehoon hehehe...Back to this dish :D Oh it is so delicious! It is quite similar the Thai Fish Cake, though I've yet to attempt to cook this, but I think this Kedah style fried fish cake is not much difference  from the Thai style :D
