Fish Balls.
This simple fish balls recipe can use any fish and some leftover mashed potato if you have any.
I often get asked for leftover recipes and this is a perfect one.
If you fancy making them from scratch, then you know how to cook fish and potatoes, so I won't bore you with the details.
The seasoned flour is just plain flour with a bit of pepper added - salt too if you're not using smoked fish - you could add a tsp of dried dill too if you like.
Fish Balls.
Ingredients.
8 oz cooked fish - skin and bones removed
1lb leftover mashed potato
chopped fresh parsley
1 egg
seasoned flour to coat
Oil for frying
Directions.
Mix the fish and potato together well - stir in the parsley.
Add the egg and mix thoroughly.
Divide the mixture into 8 and roll into balls.
Roll each ball in the flour and then set them aside in the fridge to chill for about 30 minutes.
Heat your oil in a pan - enough to shallow fry - and then add the fish balls.
Cook for about 5 minutes, turning frequently until they are crispy and golden.
