Method

  1. 1

    Blitz or finely chop the fish, then mix with the flour, egg, milk and nutmeg to make a smooth, spoonable mixture.

  2. 2

    Heat half the butter in a pan and fry spoonfuls of the fish mixture for 3–4 minutes each side until golden and cooked through.

  3. 3

    Meanwhile melt the remaining butter in another pan and soften the cabbage for 6–8 minutes until tender.

  4. 4

    Stir the cream into the cabbage and simmer for 2 minutes until slightly thickened.

  5. 5

    Taste and adjust the seasoning.

  6. 6

    Serve the fish cakes with the creamed cabbage, scattered with dill.

Use up the rest

Cooking this for one leaves 270 ml double cream, 15 g dill and 970 ml milk. These recipes finish them off, so plan one later in the same week.

Good with the rest of your week
