• 1 1/2 lbs fish (Cod, haddock or whatever you would like to use)
• 4 med to large potatoes
• 2 small onions
• 1/4 cup butter or margarine
• a little oil or bacon fat for frying

Put the fish in a pot with cold water, cover well and bring to a boil. Drain, add more cold water and bring to a boil again. Add the potatoes and 1 onion. Cook until the potatoes are done. Remove from heat and drain. Add butter or margarine and the other onion (chopped). Mash well and then form into cakes about 2 inches each way and about 1 inch thick. Fry in the oil or bacon fat (bacon fat gives a better flavor) until crisp and brown on both sides.
