is that meat?
looks like what we would call a fritter, a deep fried ball of fish, or crab or some other kind of meat.
Wooooooo, you must have different coloured fish to us, S'Cheri! It really is like a coarse pate and the ingredients are
4 oz liver,
8 slices bacon, 6 medium-sized onions,(all those ingredients chopped)
3 cups breadcrumbs soaked in 1 cup water,
half teaspoon sage (I'd use more!),
1 1/4 cups water and sald and pepper.
Cook bacon and ionions together for 5 mins over low heat. Add liver and water and simmer mix for 15 mins.
Add soaked breadcrumbs and sage, season and mix.
Turn into a well-greased square baking pan. Cut into squares and bake for 45 mins at 250 deg.
Serve cold (good with chutney, pickles, etc)
They're also known as Poor Man's Goose or Savoury Duck.
Whoops, bluefluff, I clicked on your name to see your blog and I can't at this moment now see your comment - but I do remember it!
My stepfather was a seine-netter captain and would occasionally make us some 'fishballs' consisting of chopped raw fish, onion, mashed potato and and beaten egg to bind. He'd just drop 'em into deep fat to cook til golden.
I recall, when I was little, we had an Icelandic lodger. Could never get over the fact that he wouldn't drink the milk until it had soured!! I suppose a 'sort of' yoghurt? Not to my taste though!
I thought faggots were cigarette butts. Also, the term is applied rudely with other conotations. Well, they look nice! I'm just a babe in the woods!
Nan
There's a recipe higher up in these comments for anyone so brave as to try cooking them!
