Instructions: Prepare the fish cakes: Combine fish, peas, carrot, cilantro, water, oyster-flavored sauce, cornstarch, salt, white pepper and egg white in a mixing bowl. Stir rapidly until mixture is stiff. Shape mixture into six 3 1/2-inch patties and place on a cookie sheet.

Combine the bread crumbs and sesame seeds in a shallow bowl.

Dipping Sauce: In a medium bowl, combine sweet and sour sauce, vinegar, soy sauce and dry mustard, whisk until well incorporated and mustard is dissolved.

One patty at a time, firmly press bread crumb mixture evenly into the surface of each cake. Repeat until all patties are coated with crumbs.

Pour 1-inch of oil into a large non-stick frying pan. Heat over high heat until hot. Carefully add half the fish patties into the pan. Cook, turning once, until golden brown, about 2 1/2 to 3 minutes per side. Remove fish patties with slotted spoon and drain on paper towels. Repeat with remaining patties. Serve cakes warm with the dipping sauce on the side.
