Codfish Cakes. — The fish should be cooked the day before, and should have simmered (not boiled) very slowly. Remove the bones, and mince it quite fine. The potatoes should be warm, nicely mashed with butter and milk, as you do for table 8 use, and should be in the proportion of one -third fish and two -thirds potato. When well mixed, add a small quantity of beaten egg, and mix again thoroughly. If it seems too dry, add more egg, and make into flat cakes about two or three inches in diameter, and about three- quarters of an inch thick. Fry in a pan with some slices of salt pork
