Ingredients
Shake things up a little and try this with smoked salmon the next time you make it
- 1 pack smoked cod
- 200g mashed potato, seasoned
- 2 tsp wholegrain mustard
- 50g white cheddar, grated
- 3 tbsp of chives, chopped
- 50g seasoned flour
- 2 eggs beaten
- 100g breadcrumbs
- 2 tbsp crème fraiche
- Oil for frying
Method
- Cook the smoked cod as instructed on pack. When cooled, remove the skin and any bones, and then flake the fish.
- In a bowl, mix the fish, mashed potato, cheese, half the mustard and chives. Beat 1 egg and add to the mix to bind. Split the mix into 6 equal portions and mould into round fishcakes with your hands. Place on a plate and leave in the fridge to firm up.
- When fish cakes are firm cover in seasoned flour, dip into the egg, gently shake to remove excess and place one at a time onto a bed of breadcrumbs to cover the base, scooping the breadcrumbs up over the top and pressing them firmly onto the fishcakes to cover the gaps.
- In a large frying pan cover the base with oil. Fry over a medium heat for 10 minutes, turning half way through.
- Lay the fishcakes on kitchen paper to drain and make the delicious sauce by simply mixing the remaining mustard with the crème fraiche.
