35 minutes
Fish patties with oat crumbs are a harmony of tenderness and crispy texture. This recipe originates from Russian cuisine, where the skill of cooking fish combines with the tradition of using healthy grains. Smoked haddock gives the patties a deep, rich flavor that complements the softness of potatoes and the delicacy of green onions. Oat crumbs serve as an unusual coating, creating an appetizing golden crust, while tartar sauce adds a tangy note. It is best to serve such patties with a green salad and light sauces to highlight their tenderness. This dish is suitable for both a cozy family dinner and a festive table, surprising guests with its unusual combination of textures and flavors.
