Ingredients
300g peeled floury potatoes, cut into chunks
2 x 220g packs Asda Smoked Haddock Fillets
2 level tsp Dijon mustard
3 tbsp chopped parsley
4 level tbsp capers, well drained and chopped
2 large eggs
Plain flour, to coat
200g Chosen by you Light Mayonnaise
1/2 shallot, finely chopped
6 Chosen by you Pickled Baby Gherkins, chopped
1 lemon
150g pack Chosen by you Breadcrumbs
Sunflower oil, for frying
Method
1Boil the potatoes. Drain and mash until smooth.
2Put the haddock in a pan and cover with cold water. Heat gently, covered, then simmer for 5 minutes. Remove from the heat. Leave the fish in the pan for 5 minutes to cool. Remove the skin, then flake.
3Add the fish, mustard and 1 1/2 tbsp each of the parsley and capers, to the potatoes. Separate 1 egg. Reserve the white. Mix the yolk into the potato mixture. With floured hands, shape into 12 x 4cm fishcakes. Chill for 30 minutes.
4For the tartare sauce, mix the mayonnaise with the shallot, gherkins, and rest of the parsley and capers. Add 1 tsp finely grated zest from the lemon, then cut the lemon into wedges.
5Beat together the other egg and the egg white. Use to coat the fishcakes, then roll in the breadcrumbs.
6Fry the fishcakes in batches, in 1cm of oil, for 2-4 minutes on each side, until golden and heated through. Serve with the tartare sauce and lemon wedges.
