Meanwhile, place fish in a deep frying pan. Cover with cold water. Season with salt and pepper. Cover pan. Place over medium heat. Bring to a simmer. Remove from heat. Stand for 1 minute.

Carefully transfer fish to a board. Remove and discard skin. Flake fish into pieces.

Pour enough oil into a frying pan to come 1 to 2cm up side of pan. Heat over medium-high heat. Cook fish cakes, in batches, for 3 to 4 minutes each side or until golden all over and heated through. Drain on a paper towel-lined plate. Serve fish cakes with tartare sauce, baby rocket and lemon wedges.
