Time 1h30m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

6 large potatoes cut into quarters
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 stick butter, divided
1 pound salmon
1 pound cod
3 tablespoons olive oil, for dipping fish
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar, for dipping fish
2 shallots, finely chopped
4 scallions, finely chopped
Handful chives, parsley, fennel and dill, finely chopped
3 garlic cloves, finely chopped
1 red chile, seeded and finely chopped
Flour
3 tablespoons sunflower oil, for frying
Parsley sprigs and lemon slices, for garnish
Serving suggestion: green salad

Steps:

  • Bring the potatoes to the boil, adding a pinch of salt. Turn down heat and cook for 20 minutes. Drain and mash thoroughly to get rid of lumps. Add 4 tablespoons butter, salt and freshly ground pepper.
  • Combine the oil, vinegar, salt and pepper in a small bowl to make a marinade. Dip the fish in it and wrap each piece in foil, with a sprig of parsley. Put parcels in fish kettle or on baking sheet. Add boiling water and steam for 10 to 12 minutes until the juices flow. Remove from silver foil and check for bones. Flake it into big chunks and combine with the mashed potatoes in a big bowl.
  • In a frying pan, saute the chopped shallot, scallions, chives, parsley, fennel, dill, garlic and chile in 4 tablespoons butter and olive oil until soft. Combine with potatoes and fish. Cover with cling-film and leave to chill in refrigerator for 30 minutes, see Cook's Note*.
  • Remove and form the fishcakes using a dessertspoon and pat them into shape. Dust with flour. Heat sunflower oil in frying pan until very hot and fry the cakes for 3 or 4 minutes on each side until golden brown. Dry them on paper towels.
  • Garnish with parsley and slices of lemon.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my fishcakes fell apart when I tried to flip them. I think I'll try again with a different recipe.

These fishcakes were a bit too salty for my taste. I think I'll use less salt next time.

These fishcakes were perfect! They were crispy on the outside and moist and flaky on the inside. I served them with a side of mashed potatoes and peas, and they were a hit with my family.

These fishcakes were a bit too fishy for my taste. I think I'll stick to chicken or beef burgers next time.

I was so excited to try these fishcakes, but they turned out really dry. I think I overcooked them.
