TO SERVE

Mix together the potato, fish, parsley, lemon, 1 egg yolk and seasoning to taste. Chill the mixture for easier handling.

Shape the mixture into 8''sausage'' shapes using well floured hands.

Beat together the remaining egg and egg white and use to coat the shapes.

Coat evenly with the breadcrumbs, then fry in batches in a little oil for 6-8 minutes, turning occasionally until crisp and golden. Drain on kitchen paper and serve immediately with lemon wedges and tartare sauce.
