As you might know by now I’m from Denmark – living in London. And as any person living abroad, I have my native (Danish) speciality cravings. We have a dish called “Fiskefrikadeller” which is basically minced white fish with seasoning and a dash of flour. <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

\"\"
Crispy and healthy celeriac fries<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

They’re typically served with remoulade – a condiment we love in Denmark, toasted rye bread and perhaps shredded carrot salad with lemon.

In this recipe, I tried to keep it as healthy as possible yet true to the original taste. I skipped the flour but added lots of herbs instead and served with celeriac fries, a curry-based dressing and long bands of carrots and squash. Enjoy and please let me know what you think if you try them \ud83d\ude42 <\/p>\n\n\n\n


You’ll need:<\/strong>
Fish cakes Danish style \/\/ Fiskefrikadeller<\/em>
300 g cod (or any white fish)
1 small egg
Handfull of spinach (defrosted and strained from water)
Handfull of dill and parsley
Seasoning

Celeriac Fries<\/em>
500 g (1 big lump)
Quality Olive or Rapeseed oil
Dry parsley
Seasoning

Curry dressing<\/em>
1 dl Greek yoghurt or Skyr (Icelandic high-protein yoghurt)
2 tbsp curry
Seasoning
Honey
Lemon juice
6 cm chopped chives

Greens<\/em>
1 squash
2 large carrots
Lemon juice
<\/em>
How to:<\/strong>
Celeriac Fries<\/em>
Turn the oven to 180-200 C. Peel and chop the celeriac into fries. Put them in a large bowl, add the oil, seasoning and parsley and mix well making sure every fry is well covered.

Put on a baking tray with baking paper and bake for 30 minutes or until they’re golden and crispy.

Fish Cakes Danish Style<\/em>
Use a hand mixer (stick mixer) and blend the fish into a fine mince. (I don’t have a hand mixer here as most of my kitchen stuff is stored back in Denmark, so I used a large and sharp knife and chopped, chopped, chopped)

Mix well with the herbs, spinach and seasoning.
Heat up a large frying pan with a little oil\/butter and fry on both sides for roughly 6-8 minutes until they’re nice and golden. (Tip_ using the back of a spoon, knock gently on the fish cakes. If they sound “hollow” they’re done)<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Greens:<\/em>
Using a peeler, create long bands of the squash and carrots and mix well in a pretty serving bowl. Add a good amount of lemon juice, mix and keep cool until ready to be served.
(Top tip: make double portion so you have enough for lunch the following day)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Curry Dressing<\/em>
Mix the yoghurt with all the other ingredients and mix well. Taste and adjust flavour to your liking.

Serve it all together and enjoy a Rye in the Sky take on this classic Danish dish =)

I’ll experiment a lot more with “fiskefrikadeller<\/g>” as I absolutely love them.

XOXO
