- If you end up with too much water in your fish and it is not holding its shape, add a little bit more coconut flour.
- If it is too dry, sprinkle just a little water on it. You want it to be just moist enough, not too wet or too dry.
- Make sure the oil is not too hot and you don’t use too much oil or the fish might break apart.
- Be careful when trying to flip the keto fish cakes when making it. Use a flat spatula and flip gently.
- Let the fish cakes cool down for a few minutes before eating, so it can solidify and reduce the risk of breakage.
