Balinese Fishcake

Lemongrass stalks are not easy to find outside tropical countries. Eliminate the stalks and opt for chopped lemongrass (usually sold in frozen form in some Asian supermarkets). Shape the dough into a flat-round patty to make a fishcake. You can substitute fish with lobster or crab meat. If you are using frozen spices, especially the aromatic ones, do not defrost them prior to use, for it can drain out their aroma through the excess liquid. Use it directly
