Rissoles a success all round

Salmon rissoles are proving to be a cashbook success for one Ettalong business.

Mediterranean Seafood owner Mr Husam Mohamed said his salmon rissoles are "winners".

Since developing the recipe at two months ago, Mr Mohamed said his sales had grown to 120 rissoles a week.

"If you look at the maths, these rissoles are winners," Mr Mohamed said.

"My wife Caroline makes them.

"They are a bit time-consuming but they are worth the effort."

Mr Mohamed said his chicken and vegetable rissoles and 'megaterranean' burger are also gaining popularity.

He said he is always looking for new ways to improve his business and his accountancy background helped him realise that there was a niche for wholesome food.

"The shop is always evolving," Mr Mohamed said.

The store is located at 259 Ocean View Rd, Ettalong Beach.
