FISH CAKES
fish fillets or you can used tin tuna or salmon with this I use a large tin
3 medium potatoes
1 cup bread crumbs
chopped fresh parsley
garlic clove finely chopped
salt and pepper to your taste
2 eggs, lightly beaten
oil for frying
1 Boil and mash the potatoes, set them aside.
2 Boil the codfish until it flakes easkly. Drain and flake the fish with a fork. Be sure to remove all bones.
3 Mix the flaked fish, the potatoes and the rest of the ingredients together well by hand. If the mixture is too crumbly, add another egg. If too sticky, add some more bread crumbs.
4 Form the mixture into cakes and fry them on medium high heat in a skillet coated with oil.
great served with a salad and bread

CRUMBED FISH
Instead of bread crumbs use crushed cornflakes
Lightly season fish fillets with sea salt
Dust the fish with flour ( any herbs could be added to the flour I use lemon pepper)
Dip into beaten egg
Place into the crumbs and pat the crumbs on firmly
Hint here do them and put in fridge at least an hour or more before frying (even if you use bread crumbs) helps the crumbs to stay on

MY LOVE'S FAMOUS SCONES
600 g (4 cups) of self raising flour ( only use self raising)
pinch of salt
300 mls of cream (1 and a quarter cups)
300 mls of water ( ditto )
preheat oven to hot 220C
mix all to a dough and cut into rounds if you have a cutter or squares
brush tops with milk and bake for approx 15 minutes or until brown
slice in half ...serve with jam and cream
Hint: The secret of good scones is not to have the mixture too dry and not to handle the dough to much. Wrapping scones in a tea towel after baking helps to keep them moist
Hint : these are good to freeze and zap a few seconds when needed if that unexpected visitor arrives

My easy meatloaf
1 and a half a pound of ground beef (this depends on size of your meat loaf tin and is flexible) ...you can use any ground meat like sausage meat
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
chopped medium size onion
half a cup of broken up bread slices
now you can add half a cup of any chopped up vegetables like mushrooms
1 large egg (if mixture too dry and not binding add another egg)
garlic
salt and pepper
Mix all together and place in meatloaf tin
pour over some BBQ sauce
cook until cooked right through in a medium oven about an hour and a half
hint leave in tin for 10 minutes before slicing...great cold with a salad
