Ingredients
 

  • 1 1/2 lb Maris Piper potatoes peeled and roughly diced
  • 10 1/2 oz leeks trimmed and sliced
  • 1 oz butter
  • 10 1/2 oz smoked haddock fillet
  • 3 tbsp fresh parsley chopped
  • freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 oz plain flour
  • 1 large egg beaten
  • 3 1/2 oz breadcrumbs made from 2-day-old white bread
  • 3 tbsp sunflower oil

Instructions

  • Cook the potatoes in a pan of lightly salted water for about 12 to 15 minutes until tender. Drain thoroughly, then mash.
  • Meanwhile, cook the sliced leeks in the butter in a frying pan over a low heat for 5 minutes. Slice the fish into small cubes, add to the leeks, cover the pan and cook for a further 5 minutes, until fish is cooked through and flakes easily. Fold into the mashed potato with the parsley and pepper, then allow to cool.
  • Shape the mixture into 8 flat cakes. Dust with the flout dip in the beaten egg, then in the breadcrumbs to coat evenly
  • Heat the sunflower oil in a frying pan and cook the fish cakes for 3 to 4 minutes each side, until golden and crispy. Drain on to kitchen paper and serve hot.
