Yield::4 fish cakes
Ingredients
2 large potatoes, peeled and halved
1 pound cod fillets, cubed
1 large egg, beaten
1 tablespoon butter
1 tablespoon grated onion
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
3 tablespoons oil for frying
Directions
Place potatoes into a large pot and cover with salted water; bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer until almost tender, about 15 minutes. Add cod and continue to cook until cod and potatoes are both soft, about 5 more minutes.
Drain well and transfer to a large mixing bowl. Add egg, butter, onion, and parsley; mash until well combined, then form into four patties.
Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add patties and cook until golden brown, 3 to 5 minutes per side. Drain on paper towels before serving.
Recipe Tip
You can substitute salmon for cod if you would rather make salmon cakes.
