Really tasty! Although I'm a fish lover myself these had a wonderful creamy texture from the potato that also tended to hide the fish to a degree. My girlfriend not so much into fish loved them as did I so I think it's a great all-rounder type fish recipe sure to please everyone. I did the tartare sauce using a food processor and made a little extra to use on another fish dish tomorrow.
