Delicious Icelandic fish cakes with fresh, mild cod - flaky and firm.
Ingredients:
  • 2 pounds fresh cod fillets
  • 1 cup soy creamer
  • 1 medium red onion, chopped
  • 2 large eggs
  • 3 tablespoons potato starch
  • 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 pinch salt and pepper to taste
  • tablespoon vegan butter (such as Earth Balance ®), or more to taste
  • 1 cup water, or as needed
  • 1 splash dry white wine
Instructions:
  • Take cod, break it into pieces, and put it in a food processor along with soy creamer, onion, eggs, potato starch, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper. Blend until smooth. Transfer the mixture to a bowl, cover it, and chill in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours.
  • Take out of the fridge and form into thick crab cake-sized balls.
  • In a skillet over medium heat, melt butter. Add fish balls and saute until golden brown on all sides, about 8 to 10 minutes. Pour water and wine into the skillet until liquid reaches 1/2 inch height. Cover and simmer until fish balls are cooked through, approximately 10 minutes.
