Directions
Cook Fish and potatoes till tender. Mash very thoroughly until every lump is gone. Add butter, pepper and egg and beat till the whole is light and creamy. Take up, a little at a time, with a spoon dipped in hot fat (prevents sticking) and drop into hot lard. Cook til golden brown. If the lard is the right heat this will not take more than a minute. Drain well and serve with crispy fried bacon. (Or without it).
Many of the recipes in this collection did not contain amounts or oven temperatures. I have typed them in as they appear in the book, typos and all.
