Core recipe

2 x 170 g (6oz) cod or coley fillets, fresh or defrosted, skinned and finely cubed

340 g (12oz) potatoes, cooked and mashed
4 spring onions, finely chopped
2 x 5 ml (2 teaspoons) fresh chopped parsley
115 g (4oz) garlic and herb soft cheese (Extra Light Philadelphia)
1 egg, beaten
115 g (4oz) dry polenta

2 x 15 ml spoon (2 tablespoons) sunflower oil
fresh chopped parsley, to garnish

Preheat the grill

In a large bowl mix the fish, potatoes, spring onions and parsley together.

Divide the mixture into 12 portions.  Dust hands well with flour and shape the portions into rounds and then flatten into a `burger' shape.

Place a spoonful of cheese in the middle of 6 of the burgers, top with another burger, shape and mould both burgers to form one burger.

Coat the fish burgers in the egg and polenta mixture.

Cook under a moderate heat for 15-20 minutes, turning once, basting lightly with the oil.
