Green beans and ketchup.
If I want to posh the beans up I do them the way they are sometimes served in France ..... cooked until soft, allowed to cool a bit, and then lots of finely chopped raw garlic and sea salt (the big crystals) to give them some crunch and bite.
The only thing wrong with all these set-ups... is the fishcakes!
Do you like them? I find them dry (however much you try to moisten them when binding).
Also an unpleasant 'bitsy' texture.
A good tip is to soak a crustless slice of white bread in milk for a few minutes, squeeze the milk out and add the bread to the fishcake mix. Works with meatballs as well.

Cabbage
Tomato and fennel salad
Pomme de terre a la Anglaise with mustard.
Spanish salt potatoes
Or a green salad with a nice oil, lemon juice and Dijon mustard dressing.
Minted peas or mushy peas might be nice too.
Ratatouille
Mushy Peas
I'd have a few chips and a dollop of mash on the side

Do you mean Thai style fish cakes or smoked haddock with lots of potato type fish cakes?
On which note, braised lettuce with peas would be lovely with some fishcakes.
They were gorgeous!
As above

I would guess a UK style would be with potato and breadcrumbs.
I've seen a lot of US crabcakes just binded with mayo and maybe just a little breadcrumbs/crackers.
Thi fish cakes sometimes use blitzed seafood as the binder
