Breakfast Herring

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Place the herring over a steamer and heat them well through, touch them up with a little butter and have a dish of well steamed potatoes ready, and it will make a meal. Or chop the herring very fine, mix it with mashed potatoes and a beaten up &g%, and fry in a little butter, and it will make a nice potato cake.

  2. Steam a haddock or other white fish and take the flesh off the bones. Beat up a few eggs and mix with a few bread crumbs, put butter in frizzling pan, pour in the eggs, with pepper and salt, add the fish pieces, then cover with other half of eggs and frizzle both sides.
