113: Kipper patties, dill mayonnaise, p48

Hmm, don't like smoked fish, and kippers might just be the smokiest of smoked fish... yuck. But these were duly made (recipe halved), and served to the hubby, who loves smoked fish, thank goodness, and I tried a little bit. Not sure about blitzing the potatoes in the food processor (I used my stick blender, since it was such a small amount), as it makes them release all the starch, resulting in a thick, gluey consistency which is really quite horrid. The patties were gooey on the inside and threatened to break up into gloopy little dollops during frying, and they were too soft to risk blotting the excess oil on kitchen towel after frying, ick. I think I'll stick to mashing the potato up with a fork/masher... Hubby liked them very much, and they weren't horrid at all, just smoked fishy, so not my thing :) But the dill/garlic/mayo was scrummy, v nice indeed!
