These are delicious and versatile. These are traditional in the Danish Mock Turtle soup. Serve them as an appetizer with a dip or make it as a fish loaf. Any way it is good In one of the pictures you will see that I made a sauce and fried them - these went over really well. They are wonderful in a curry sauce
Ingredients:
1 lb fish fillet, skinned and minced finely (cod, sole, whitefish)
2 teaspoons salt
1 pinch white pepper
5 tablespoons plain flour or 5 tablespoons potato flour
2 ounces butter
2 eggs
1 -1 1/2 pint light cream
Directions:
1. Mix seasoning with the minced fish and the flour.
2. Beat the mixture very well and integrate the butter.
3. Add eggs one at a time.
4. Gradually add the liquid.
5. If the mixture curdles stand the bowl in hot water and whisk until it is smooth again.
6. Check your seasoning.
7. Shape the farce into round balls using 2 spoons dipped in hot water.
8. Bring about 2 pints of salted water to a boil.
9. Cook one ball to check the consistency.
10. Add more egg if the ball is too soft, or cream if it is too stiff.
11. If the ball is right cook all the balls, they only take a minute to cook and float when done.
12. Serve as an appetizer, use in the Danish mock turtle soup or make it in a ring shaped mold and serve it with a sauce as your main course.
