    List of Ingredients




    6 tablespoons butter
    1/3 cup chopped scallions, white parts only
    6 large potatoes, cut in half
    1 tablespoon sour cream
    6 ounces flaked cooked white-fleshed fish, such as cod, haddock,
    pollock, halibut or flounder
    1 egg
    1/4 teaspoon dry mustard
    Salt
    Freshly ground black pepper
    3 tablespoons minced parsley
    Dried bread crumbs
    1 tablespoon olive or vegetable oil

    Recipe



    Heat 2 tablespoons of the butter and saute the scallions in it for about 5 minutes, stirring frequently. Do not allow the scallions to brown. Set them aside.

    Meanwhile, cook the potatoes, and when they are soft, drain and mash them with 1 tablespoon of the butter and the sour cream. Combine them with the fish and set aside.

    Beat the egg, adding the mustard, a generous amount of salt, and black pepper. Stir in the scallions and parsley. Combine this mixture with the potatoes and fish. (A spatula works well. Do not use a mixer, or the potatoes will become gummy.)

    Form the fish mixture into 8 cakes about 2 1/2 inches in diameter and dip each cake into the bread crumbs. Heat the remaining butter and the oil in a large frying pan, and saute the fish cakes slowly for about 3 minutes on each side, or until they are lightly browned and cooked through.
