Codfish Balls

Codfish balls fried golden brown with mashed potatoes are a hearty, delicious meal.

Take the bone from a piece of fish, make it weigh six ounces, soak in cold water, put in a saucepan and boil for half an hour. Pound it to a pulp, being careful that all the bones are removed. Boil a half pound of potatoes and when done mash them up with the fish, adding a tablespoonful of melted butter and one egg. Make this into balls and fry to a light brown.
