This recipe is based on one which was found in an old Scottish Womens Rural Institute cook book and makes a change for those who don't particularly like meat or pork.

Fish Sausages Recipe

Ingredients:
6oz cooked white fish
2 oz peeled prawns
2 oz mushrooms
2 oz breadcrumbs
some flour
2 teaspoons dried parsley
2 eggs (lightly beaten)
3 oz fine oatmeal
salt & pepper

Method:
Skin the fish(if requried) and remove any bones and finely chop the prawns. Chop and fry the mushrooms in a little butter.

Using a bowl, break up and pound the white fish, prawns, mushrooms, breadcrumbs into a consistency similar to sausagemeat. Then add the parsley and seasoning, binding the mixture with half the beaten egg mixture.

With floured hands form the mixture into sausage shapes and dip in the remaining beaten egg and roll in the oatmeal. Fry this in hot shallow oil for about 6 to 7 minutes until golden brown, turning regularly

Drain on kitchen paper and this should serve four.
