Feta Salmon Fishcakes

Serve this with a nice green salad to complete the meal. It is one of my favourite weekend treats.

Peel the potatoes , cut into chunks and boil until tender.

Drain and mash until smooth and leave to cool for a few minutes.

Meanwhile , put a little of the oil in a frying pan and when it is heated , add the red pepper and salmon fillet.

Use a fork to break the salmon into pieces , then cook the fish until it is flaky and the red pepper until it is soft , about five minutes.

When the mash is cool , season it generously with black pepper and then sift the flour over the top.

Use a wooden spoon to mix the flour in until it disappears.

Whisk the egg and add it to the mixture , stirring well.

Crumble the feta over the top and snip the chives into the bowl.

Finally add the red pepper and salmon and stir again to mix evenly.

Dust your hands with flour and form the mixture into patties.

You can make 12 cookie sized patties or 6 larger cakes.

Add the rest of the oil to the frying pan and , when very hot , lay out some of the potato cakes but be careful not to overcrowd the pan.
