MOCK FISH

by Megan

4 potatoes
2 onions
1 egg
1 tablespoon flour
Pinch salt
Pepper to taste


1. Peel potatoes and grate
2. Grate the onions
3. Mix the potatoes & onions together, add the egg and the flour and mix well
4. Add salt & pepper and mix through
5. Take a tablespoon of the mixture and shape into a small pattie
6. Shallow fry the patties until they are dark golden brown (they are best if the edges are slightly burnt)
7. Drain on paper towels

These are great eaten with ketchup. To increase the mixture, increase the proportions of potato and onion.

When we had this, my family used to bring the electric frypan to the table and we'd cook the patties as we went so that they were piping hot.

The best bits are the bits that break off and are really crunchy. Fairness says the person who grated the onions gets these.
