Pan-Seared Fish and Potato Cakes With Dill Infused Yoghurt Sauce
A delightful dish of pan-seared fish and potato cakes served with a refreshing dill-infused yoghurt sauce.
Ingredients
| 500 | g white fish (not too strong in flavor, can be basic) |
|---|---|
| 6 | medium potatoes |
| approximately 1 ½ cups instant mash dried potato flakes or an additional 1 cup of potato flakes | |
| 2 | 2-3 tablespoons of parsley |
| 1 | 1-2 teaspoons of salt (to taste) |
| 1⁄2 | teaspoon ½ teaspoon of white pepper |
| light vegetable oil, for frying | |
| 200 | ml 200 ml of plain yogurt |
| 4 | tablespoons 4 tablespoons of fresh dill or dill paste |
Instructions
| 1. | Begin by carefully removing the bones from the white fish and dicing it into small, uniform cubes. |
|---|---|
| 2. | Next, grate four of the medium potatoes coarsely and finely grate the remaining two. Gently squeeze out some excess moisture from the grated potatoes, being careful not to squeeze too much. |
| 3. | In a large mixing bowl, combine the diced fish and grated potatoes with fresh parsley, a touch of salt, and a hint of white pepper. |
| 4. | Gradually add the instant mashed potato flakes to the mixture until it reaches a consistency that binds together the ingredients. You may need to adjust the amount depending on the moisture content of the potatoes. |
| 5. | Shape the mixture into cakes by hand, coating them in a blend of potato flakes and salt for a golden crust. |
| 6. | Heat a sufficient amount of light vegetable oil in a frying pan over medium heat. The oil should be enough for frying, but not excessive. |
| 7. | Fry the fish cakes for about 7 minutes on each side or until they are beautifully golden brown and cooked through. Adjust the heat as needed to prevent burning. |
| 8. | Once cooked, transfer the fish cakes onto paper towels to absorb any excess oil. |
| 9. | To prepare the dill yoghurt sauce, simply combine the plain yoghurt with freshly chopped dill or dill paste. |
| 10. | Serve the pan-seared fish and potato cakes alongside a bed of rocket (arugula) salad with your favorite dressing for a delightful meal. |
