Receta Homemade Fish Cakes
Ingredientes
- Fish...either...small pieces tail end of cod/haddock/smoked haddock or go mad, open a tin of tuna chunks in brine, drain it and use this
- Leftover mashed potatoes (about one and a half portions worth of)
- 1 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
- 1 teaspoon dried fish stock powder (if you have it in)
- 1 large free range egg beaten
- Stale bread or a stale bread roll (not green mould stale!!) I used a hardening ciabatta roll, to make breadcrumbs
- Sunflower or vegetable oil for frying
Direcciones
- If your fish is fresh (not tinned) then cook this first. I usually zap mine in the microwave on a plate covered in clingfilm for about a minute and a half, depending on the size of your fish and power behind your microwave you might need longer. Alternatively poach your fish in milk until cooked.
- Make some breadcrumbs by blitzing the stale bread in a food processor until quite fine. Leave this in a dish. Beat the egg and leave this in a dish too.
- Once cooked, flake the fish into the potato, take out any bones as you go, add the chopped parsley and a teaspoon of the dried fish stock powder at the same time. and mix through with a fork, do not over mix as you want to see and taste the chunks of fish.
- Flour your work surface and take portions of the potato mix and make into round shapes. Use a ring mold to help you get them the same size if you like.
- Dip each 'cake' into the beaten egg and then the breadcrumbs. Leave to rest on a plate while you heat about an inch of oil in a frying pan.
- Carefully lower each fish cake into the oil and fry over a moderate heat for about 3 minutes each side, the frying time depends on how deep your fish cakes are. Once cooked drain on kitchen paper. If frying in batches keep warm in a moderate oven. Serve with ketchup and tartar sauce and whatever else takes your fancy!
