FISH CAKES & CHIPS - fish meatballs with fine french fries

Fish & Chips is a traditional, simple and extremely popular dish in the UK. It is mostly prepared or bought on Fridays for dinner. In addition to the usual cod fillet (cod or haddock), the so-called "fish cakes" are also extremely popular - simple fish and potato meatballs. French fries are fried for a short time before frying, which achieves the best internal and external texture of potatoes, soft but not rubbery on the inside and crispy on the outside. :)

Preparation steps

Boil fish fillets in water for 2-3 minutes, no need to salt, then drain and leave to cool a bit. Chop the meat into small pieces.
Peel the potatoes and cut into small pieces and put to boil for 10-12 minutes in salted water. Drain and mash into a coarse puree, let them be pieces.
Finely chop the onion and garlic and fry in butter for about 2 minutes
Mix fish and potatoes with onions, add parsley, dill, egg white, pepper, salt, flour and horseradish. Add extra flour as needed if the mixture is too thin.
In a small bowl, whisk the egg yolks and add the bread crumbs to a special plate. With a spoon, take out the fish mixture and dip it in the egg yolks, then in the bread crumbs and put the oven in hot oil. Squeeze a little with a spoon to get a flat shape. If you want bread crumbs you can mix with a little chili stains. Fry each side for 2 minutes.
French fries The best french fries are with a floury texture, i.e. old potatoes because they have a small percentage of water. Never use new potatoes or potatoes with a waxy texture. For those in the UK, you probably already know that the best types are Maris Piper and King Edward.
Peel a squash, grate it and slice it into long, thick pieces. Put in salted water to cook for 5-7 minutes. Remove and allow to cool slightly and dry. It is best to put in the fridge for 10-15 minutes.
Heat the oil and deep fry the chilled potatoes. It must be completely dry before you add it to the oil. Fry for about 7 minutes. It should get a fine golden color but should not darken too much.
When it is done put the potatoes on the grill grate to drain the oil and let the potatoes dry and be crispy. After 2-3 minutes, put in a bowl, add salt and be sure to sprinkle with malt vinegar and enjoy! It is best to use vinegar from a jar with pickled hoods! :)
