Method

4 steps · 44 min

01
Poach and Flake Fish
Place the haddock in a lidded pan and add enough water to just cover it. Bring it to a simmer, then reduce to a low heat and gently poach for 10 minutes with the lid on. Once cooked, drain the fish and flake it apart.
02
Mix, Form, and Bread
In a large bowl, combine the flaked fish with the potato, green chili, coriander, cumin, black pepper, garlic, and ginger. Season the mixture, then add the flour and break in 1 egg. Mix everything thoroughly.
Divide the mixture into 15 portions and shape each into a small log. In one bowl, lightly whisk the remaining eggs. In another, place the breadcrumbs. Dip each fofo first in the beaten egg, then roll it in the breadcrumbs until fully coated.
Transfer the breaded fofos to a plate and chill them for at least 20 minutes. This helps them hold their shape when frying.
03
Fry the Fofos
Heat about 1 cm of vegetable oil in a large frying pan over medium heat. Fry the fofos in batches for about 2 minutes on each side, turning them gently until they are an even golden brown all over. Once fried, transfer them to kitchen paper to drain any excess oil, and repeat with the remaining fofos.
04
Make Onion Salad
To make the accompanying onion salad, simply mix the sliced onion, fresh coriander, and lemon juice in a small bowl with a pinch of salt. Serve the fofos warm, alongside the onion salad and a generous dollop of mango chutney.
