Instructions
Mash the potato in a large bowl.
In a small skillet, cook the bacon and scallions until the meat is crisp, about 5 minutes.
Add the bacon and scallions to the bowl.
Mix in the cod, peas (if using), egg, salt, and pepper.
Cover and chill for 30 minutes.
Put the cornflake or Chex crumbs in a shallow bowl. Form the cod mixture into 6 three-inch round patties. Press all sides of them into the crumbs.
Heat the oil in a skillet over medium-high heat.
Fry the cakes for 1 to 2 minutes a side.
Serve them on the buns, with tartar sauce or mayonnaise.
Recommended wine: Pinot Grigio, Gruener Veltliner, Pinot Noir
Fish on the menu? Try pairing with Pinot Grigio, Gruener Veltliner, and Pinot Noir. Fish is as diverse as wine, so it's hard to pick wines that go with every fish. A crisp white wine, such as a pinot grigio or Grüner Veltliner, will suit any delicately flavored white fish. Meaty, strongly flavored fish such as salmon and tuna can even handle a light red wine, such as a pinot noir. The Skyfall Pinot Gris with a 4.8 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 13 dollars per bottle.
Skyfall Pinot Gris
Pale straw in color with notes of mango, citrus blossom and banana in the nose. On the palate a medley of tropical fruit unfolds into tangerine, mango, grapefruit, and banana flavors. These tropical notes continue throughout the long and lingering finish.
