Fish is high in protein and omega-3 fatty acids which appeared to have important neurodevelopmental benefits to children during gestation and infancy.cardiovascular health in adults and brain development in infants. Fish consumption lowers the risk of death from heart disease by 36%. Women of childbearing age, nursing mothers and young children should eat up to two servings per week of a variety of fish.
Instead of frying, you can bake them with vegetable oil spray.

I was looking to spice up my Mealmart gefilte fish loaf for Shabbos and adapted this recipe. I thawed the fish loaf and mixed in 1/2 cup bread crumbs (the loaf already has matzo meal in it). I sauteed the onion and added twice the amount (because the fish loaf is roughly twice the amount of fish called for in the recipe) of the other ingredients--except the oil and salt. I mixed this onion mixture plus the two eggs into the fish. With a 1/4 cup measure I scooped out the fish mixture, and formed it into patties. I covered the patties with more breadcrumbs and placed them on a cookie sheet that had been sprayed with non-stick cooking spray. I had 13 patties. I sprayed the patties with non-stick cooking spray and put them in a 450 degree preheated oven for 20 minutes. I love the combination of spices--it's really good. I think next time I will try cooking them a few minutes less, though. They browned a bit too much for me. Thanks, Beutiful, for the inspiration!
