These cakes turned out fantastic! I took several reviewer's advice and so made some modifications. I boiled 1/2 onion and a clove of garlic with the potatoes. I added thyme, red pepper powder, oregano, and curry powder. I also refrigerated the mix and coated in seasoned flour before cooking them in 1/4 cup canola oil. Thanks for the tips!

I can't believe I've never reviewed these fish cakes before. I've been making this recipe for a long time now and they're awesome! I too add a little bit of bread crumbs (I don't measure...just what gives it a nice consistency). I also add some crab seasoning and coat with flour. They are one of my kids' favorites and a staple in our house! Thanks for sharing.

this recipe was good. very good, but it needed some small changes. when I made this, it was way too soft and sticky to form into patties, so I added some bread crumbs. A few small changes that were more on a personal basis were substituting cilantro for parsley, adding salt and ground red pepper, and using less oil to fry in. I also make a spicy chipotle mayo sauce that went great with these cakes, gave them just the right amount of kick!

Really good. It makes an average 7 cakes just so ya'll know. I would make it again but was thinking of another way of cooking the fish besides boiling. very messy

Just like the ones in New England! Make the fish cakes small (larger ones fall apart) and add salt.

These were fantastic. What a great way to use up leftover mashed potatoes. I did dredge them in flour before frying, and next time I will coat them in breadcrumbs first, as I'm sure this will make them even better!

We LOVE these fish cakes! We will never eat "store bought" again. I follow the recipe exactly. I have used different kinds of fish, depending what is on sale. We have pan fried and deep fried them. Every way we have made them, they are delicious. Thank you for the GREAT recipe!

Found this recipe while searching for a way to use all the fish in my freezer from my fiances fishing trips. I'm not a huge fan of fish, but these were really good! I did add bread crumbs to the mixture and also coated each cake with them, they were much too soft without. I added some seasonings - garlic powder, seasoned salt, cajun - but would add more next time to give it a little more kick. I had the deep fryer out for onion rings, so used it to cook these - lots of fat, I know, but it worked really well. Served them with some lemon-dill sauce and my fiance was already planning on when we should have them again before he had finished eating!

I used pollock instead of cod, but the cakes still tasted great. Fish sandwiches with tartar sauce were made out of the leftovers and these were great too!

Loved this! Thanks for posting. I had some leftover (cooked) fish that my husband and son caught in the ocean. Microwaved 4 little potatos, had to use dried parsley, but the result was terrific.

Even with fish that had been frozen a bit too long, these came out delicious. I did add some extra seasoning and dredge them before frying.

I haven't tried this yet, but when a recipe calls for "two large potatoes" and I think about the multitude of potatoes sizes, I get annoyed. How about "approximately two pounds" of potatoes" as a measurement or whatever her idea of two large ones weighs.

I made these tonight for dinner. I used just under a pound of cod, 2 large baking potatoes (for their starch in hopes of it holding them together), a half teaspoon of Old Bay, and I doubled the onion and parsley. I found the mixture to be pretty stiff (a spoon stood up easily in the mixture) so I added only the egg yolk, and threw away the white. My first batch still fell apart a bit in the pan, and I was very careful- even using two spatulas. So, I dredged my second batch in flour before frying- I didn't put them in an egg wash or anything, just flour, and they held together PERFECTLY. We all enjoyed them- even my 2 year old was gobbling them up. I thought they were tasty, but I would up the seasoning a bit more next time. If the kids weren't eating them, I'd add some heat. Really, the seasonings can be adjusted to whatever your liking. These were very easy, and the recipe made a dozen, which was just enough for us. Will make again.

i made this last night but changed it as i had leftover tuna steaks, which were partially cooked. i boiled the potatoes then slowly added the tuna to the drained potatoes (the heat form the potatoes cooked the remaining tuna). i added fresh chillies,garlic,parsley and chives as well as salt n pepper. I breaded them and fried them for 3mins each. They were amazing!!

4 stars due to changes required. I boiled the potato and cod with 2 garlic cloves and half an onion. Then mashed it all together, added thyme, red pepper flakes and some bread crumbs. Finally covered each cake in bread crumbs, cooled in the fridge for one hour (which allows them to harden and will not break apart during cooking). Then seared in a hot pan on both sides before finishing in the oven.

These are wonderful. However, I did make a few small changes. Since I started with salt cod, I soaked it overnight, changed the water, simmered the cod, changed the water and simmered again to remove most of the salt. I coarsely mashed some leftover boiled potatoes and added the drained, flaked and deboned cod. I omitted the butter and added a little fresh-snipped dill. Then I coated the cod cakes with a little seasoned flour to make them really crispy on the outside. My husband grew up in Nova Scotia, and he had to admit that these cod cakes were just like the ones he remembers eating when he was a kid - except for the dill, which he said was a really nice addition. Thanks for the posting.
