Instructions
- Cook the smoked haddock. Place the smoked haddock in a shallow pot and pour in enough milk to cover the fish.
- Remove the fish and bring the milk to a boil.
- Add the haddock again, reduce the heat and simmer for 4 minutes.
- Remove the cooked haddock from the milk and set aside to cool. Next, remove the skin and flake the fish. Use the milk for a seafood chowder or Cullen Skink (you can freeze it to use later, too).
- Mix the ingredients together.
- Put the mashed potatoes, flaked fish, 1 egg, salt, pepper and parsley into a bowl and mix together gently until well combined.
- Form the potato and fish mixture into patties. You can make them smaller, as appetizers, or larger for a main dish serving.
- Place on a cookie sheet and place in the fridge for about 15 minutes.
- Beat the other egg and place in a tray or plate for dipping. In another tray or plate, place breadcrumbs. I like these trays. Dip each smoked haddock and potato cake in egg and coat evenly. Next, dip in the breadcrumbs and place on a tray or cookie sheet.
- Put some oil in a nonstick or stainless steel frying pan and heat on medium high. Start adding a few smoked haddock fish cakes at a time. Fry until nicely golden brown before turning.
- When cooked, remove from pan and place on paper towel-lined plate. Serve hot and enjoy!
Notes
- Try my salmon and potato fish cakes too.
