4 servings
  1. 2large potatoes, peeled and cut into quarters
  2. 2cod fillets
  3. 100 gbreadcrumbs 1 tsp of chopped fresh parsley
  4. 2 tbspsfreshly grated Parmesan cheese
  5. 1 clovegarlic, finely minced
  6. 1 tspsalt 1tsp of ground black pepper

  10. For the parsley sauce 40g/2oz butter 40g/2oz plain flour 500ml/17fl oz milk salt and white pepper 4 tbsp finely chopped parsley or dried

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Boil and mash the potatoes; set them aside.
    Simmer the cod fillets covered in water until it flakes easily, about 3 to 5 minutes. Drain and flake the cod with a fork. Be sure to remove all bones.

  2. 2

    Mix the flaked fish, the potatoes, and the rest of the ingredients together well by hand. If the mixture is too crumbly, add another egg. If too sticky, add some more breadcrumbs.

  3. 3

    Form the mixture into cakes and fry them over medium-high heat in a large non stick frying pan coated with a little oil until nicely browned on one side, then flip them over and continue to cook until well browned on the other side.

  4. 4

    Method for the parsley sauce
    Melt the butter in a saucepan over a medium heat. Stir in the flour and cook for 1–2 minutes.
    Take the pan off the heat and gradually stir in one-third of the milk.

  5. 5

    Return to the heat and simmer, stirring, until all the milk is absorbed. Repeat this process until all the milk has been added.
    Simmer gently for 5 minutes and season with salt and white pepper.
    Stir in the parsley.
