Benefits
Fish cakes are a delicious and nutritious way to enjoy the health benefits of fish and other wholesome ingredients like garlic, bell peppers, and ginger. Fish is an excellent source of lean protein and omega-3 fatty acids, which are known for supporting heart health, reducing inflammation, and promoting brain function. The inclusion of garlic in fish cakes adds a powerful immune-boosting element, as garlic contains allicin, a compound that helps to combat infections and lower blood pressure. The combination of these nutrient-rich ingredients makes fish cakes a fantastic option for a well-balanced and heart-healthy meal.
In addition to the fish and garlic, bell peppers and ginger bring a range of health benefits to the table. Bell peppers are packed with vitamin C, which supports immune function, skin health, and collagen production, while their vibrant colours indicate the presence of antioxidants that help fight free radicals in the body. Ginger, on the other hand, is well-known for its anti-inflammatory properties, aiding in digestion and helping to alleviate nausea. Together, these ingredients create a flavourful dish that not only satisfies your taste buds but also promotes overall wellness.
