  • one cupful raw codfish
  • one teaspoonful of butter
  • one-fourth saltspoonful of pepper
  • a piece of raw potato in forty seconds
  • four medium-sized potatoes
  • one egg
  • pepper

Four medium-sized potatoes, One-fourth saltspoonful of pepper.

3

Wash, pare and cut the potatoes into quarters ; let stand in cold water; wash the fish and pick into half-inch pieces; remove the bones ; put the potatoes and fish into a kettle, cover with boiling water and cook until potatoes are soft, about twenty-five minutes; drain off all the water; mash and beat until very light; add the butter and pepper, and when slightly cooled add the egg" and more salt if needed; shape in a tablespoon; fry in hot fat until a golden brown; use a frying basket and fry only four or five at a time ; more will cool the fat. The fat should be hot enough to brown a piece of raw potato in forty seconds. Drain on soft paper and serve immediately.
