SALMON SEALS

1/2 lb. Boiled Salmon
1 1/2 lbs. Potatoes
1 or 2 Eggs
A walnut of Butter
Salt and Pepper
A little Beaten Egg
A few Breadcrumbs
Dripping to fry


~Boil the potatoes and mash with a little butter and pepper; then form into small round cakes about a quarter-inch thick. Hard-boil one or two eggs and chop small. Flake the salmon and mix with the egg. Season with salt and pepper. Press a spoonful of the mixture into a potato cake and put another cake over it. When all are ready, egg and breadcrumb them, and fry in hot dripping to a golden brown.


~This method makes a little salmon go a long way.
